Wildhoney - Wildhoney (2013) + Seventeen Forever (2014)


Two sugary lil' slices of pop-y, upbeat shoegaze courtesy of Baltimore's own Wildhoney. Immersive, towering guitars, angelic vocals, and a peppy rhythm section that helps to give the band a fun, new wave-y undercurrent.

Track listing:
-Wildhoney-
1. Like Me
2. My Disguise
3. Super Stupid
-Seventeen Forever-
1. Seventeen
2. Get Out of My Dreams
3. Soft Bats

Fall in

  1. Goddamn. Wildhoney s/t 7" was my label's third release. You have no idea how much this blog has shaped my tastes in the last year-plus-- this is beyond an honor to see the EP featured here! A thousand thanks to you, dude.

    2. You bet, man, I am so glad you dig this. I unfortunately have to make this plug publicly since you don't list an email address here, but...all the stuff on the label is 100% free to download on Bandcamp. I know you liked a previous Nothing (Jason Walton, not the shoegaze band) release-- the tape reissue of his album The Grey Subaudible would almost certainly interest you. Ditto the neofolk record by A Heart in the Stillness. Anyway, hope you dig! www.nostalgiumdirective.bandcamp.com
