Hear the enthralling opener of the latest exquisite EP “In A Dream” by Calm Down Party, an indie collective from Seattle, WA.
“Fright Fest” is a top-notch revival of the nineties heavenly and psychedelic alt-rock wave. The first slot of the song feels like an incredible session of Galaxie 500 and Spaceman 3. The warming, ethereal guitar tones and drones wrap Alex Buraczynski’s hypnotizing voice at the center. Next comes the accelerating transition with surprising bluegrass harmonica rocking, and the second part at 03:03 has a more energetic, Madchester and shoegaze temper in the vein of Ride, The Stone Roses and suchlike. The band also mentions the song as
“spooky roller coasters at Wild Waves every halloween.”
