Still Ruins Share Of Devotion

Chances are, if you’re crafting music in Oakland these days, I’m probably going to be way into it, which appears to be the case with Still Ruins. When you listen to the latest single from their new 12″, it’ll easily be lumped in with the modern dream pop sounds. But, that put before you, I beg you to give a further listen, as there’s this dance with more crystalline guitar notes that feels much bolder. There’s something in the breathy vocals and the lyrical content that definitely hold tightly onto nostalgic grooves, like a track just waiting to be used for a rainy scene in a John Hughes film. If you’re looking for more than atmosphere and reverb, try their self-titled EP, out this Friday via Smoking Room/Cercle Social.
