Description
The quick drum pick-up into the first chorus of Aquarius Apocalyptic still gives me a little jolt. Stop Light Observations’ Toogoodoo is that blend of coastal Southern grit and widescreen indie rock they do so well, with big dynamic swings and melodies built to linger. Coyote prowls on a springy bass move that keeps the verses taut, while Security leans into a hush-then-swell arrangement that pays off without getting schmaltzy.
On our Melbourne shelves it sits neatly beside My Morning Jacket and the mid-2010s Southern indie resurgence, but the vocals here are more pop-forward and the keys tuck in little psych flecks. This pressing does the music a favour: low end sits deeper and imaging snaps into place, so those layered guitars don’t blur when the choruses really lift.
If you’d rather order online, you can buy Stop Light Observations records online with us. Spin it loud and you’ll hear how the band’s push-pull dynamics let each song breathe, from the airy intro blooms to the tight, room-filling hits. It’s a record that can soundtrack a late drive as easily as a small backyard get-together, without ever feeling try-hard.
Stop Light Observations – Toogoodoo belongs in the collection if you like modern rock with a bit of Carolina sun on it. Perfect for anyone building a record collection, buy online or in store today.
