Pop: Do We Not Like That?

(Too Pure)
by Jen Beatty

This feels like being let in on a big secret. With the exception of PJ Harvey, Stereolab, and Th’ Faith Healers, the bands come as virtually unknown acts. Moonshake and Pram are trickling, disconnected, and hard to grasp. Mouse on Mars is industrial. Also a sampling from the Primus-like Laika and a harder cut from the Voodoo Queens. No judgement from me on this one. If you are adventurous, pick up Pop (Do we not like that?).
