Strange Men Share Under the Compass Rose + Drop Come Yesterday
Sorry for the long-winded title on this post, but I’m a bit frazzled as I play the new LP from Strange Men. They just released their debut album after a handful of singles, and I’m honestly surprised that there hasn’t been more buzz from the West Coast contingent, as the band rips. The tune below reminds me of the perfect smash between Pains of Being Pure at Heart and Comet Gain, noisy in the right spots with a beautiful tendency to lean into the pop side of things. Elsewhere on Come Yesterday, you’ll find scuzzy rockers and little indie nuggets, all of which will make you appreciate the group’s first offering!
