¡All-Time Quarterback! - S/T




This is a prime example of how indie pop should be done. ¡All-Time Quarterback! take this minimal style of quirky pop that reflects heavily on the Beatles' Revolver era with a light backing of digital percussions brought on by a Casio synthesizer. And if they don't sound bouncy and happy, they sound mellow and emotional, most notably on "Send Packing" and a cover of Magnetic Fields' "Why I Cry" (female vocals and all on the latter).
