Obsessed with this band right now. Their latest album plays like a greatest hits of indie pop nugs. All their stuff is solid. So catchy, fun, funny, weird, and their live show is a blast.
any release by them but particularly their latest drop saw them open for indigo de souza a week ago and here i am 50 scrobbles and counting later. obsessed with the gritty, sludgy stuff juxtaposed with the vulnerable, intricate stuff.
yes more indie twang i will not shut up! ik i’m late asf i found frog almost a year ago and i’m still not sick of them. and i get to see them in 2 weeks i‘m tweaking 👹 idk this album has the same affect on my brain as slime videos if that makes sense. anyway go listen if u haven’t!!

Pitchfork says: “The sprawling and spectacular Cindy Lee album is an essential trove of music. Each song is like a foggy transmission from a rock’n’roll netherworld with its own ghostly canon of beloved hits.” To me, just a really solid album of moody lo-fi goodness, reminiscent of e6 and the like. Only available to stream for free on their site or YT or as a download. Donations suggested.
