Crystal Stilts - In Love With Oblivion (2011)

Lo-fi garage with cavernous vocals and equally cavernous, echo-laden overtones. One track it'll be twilight on earth, the next it'll be out to space, but doesn't get boring or sound so curmudgeonly a la "pop a buncha Nyquil-dowsed Valium and forget it all" depression that I, for one, can't get my head around. More or less, it's one of those bands that reminds me not to hate a genre just because I hate most of the bands within it.
