Sucker Announce Seein’ God 7″
Sucker is Oakland’s answer to the career of Built to Spill; their songs are filled with these huge riffs that come crashing down like punishing waves, yet still hold tightly to a pop sensibility. They’re able to obscure the vocals behind the mix a bit with feedback and extemporaneous noise, forcing you to look inside the song for those little doses of sugar that your brain seeks out. Feels like the band is looking back on where indiepop and noise rock fused, and in that, I’ve got a huge smile on my face as I love this vibe. They’ll be releasing the Seein’ God 7″ via Cherub Dream Records on February 14th.
