Songs was recorded under the helm of Casey Rice (The Dirty Three, The Sea and Cake, Gastr Del Sol). The album leaves you wondering how a sound that feels so familiar: two guitars, a bass and drums, can be so spectacularly nuanced with shades of something new and unheard. Echoes of John Cale, The Velvet Underground, Television, Galaxie 500, sun drenched pop, and the most nihilist acid folk make a glorious union. But no influence is as strong as The Clean, New Zealand's greatest exponents of the Dunedin sound. Their ghost is felt in Songs’ dead pan humor, simple experimentation, and crystal tone.
