I am a big fan of Secret Molecules and have covered the EPs since that initial wonderful self titled debut album in 2022. That album was in the Best Of Year and the follow up EPs have been every bit as great. Splendid Pop Rock!
The Dutch Trio from Dordrecht other up bouncy melodic joyful releases. These five songs even closer to Power Pop, but still retain the proximity to the likes of Squeeze and in particular Caper Clowns. Stereo Music On The Radio is probably the best example here. A Caper Clowns ringer.
The title track is great Guitar Pop, with a twang that gets a little Americana. Mulholland Drive sounds a little more 60s, Merseybeat even and offers up great melody to a Power Pop drum beat. I Don't Think I Know Your Name gets more jangling 80s.
What's Come Over Me is a great closer is great Pop Rock with its slight UK New Wave feel. In Your Shadow is a great Summer EP revealing big choruses, killer riffs and a sheer pleasantness that completely washes over you and makes the day brighter.
You can listen to and buy the EP here.
