EVENING STANDARDS - Self-Titled (CASS)
In the drab, depressing landscape of current times, Evening Standards are a neon flower refusing to wilt. Heavier & darker than their other projects (Purple 7, Fat Shadow, Future Virgins, Vera Maleta, ADD/C,) — Evening Standards are a "deep and dark and rollicking crew best enjoyed with bare thighs on a hot car hood" (Erin Bowers, artist). Themes border on existential AF, but buoyant, hooky pop keeps the darkness harnessed right where they can see it. Daun, Chris Mott, and Cole Champion channel their undying and undead love for each other & community into this ten song, recorded-in-mono-together-in-one-room album. Engineered by Mike Bridavsky, Russian Recording, Bloomington, IN. Art by Chris Mott. (LP)
