Spooky Pink

s/t EP

(Self-issued)



Not long out of cocoon phase, these alternative spark-plugs have cultivated a collective multiple personality that warrants scrutiny. Contrasting components include sugary pop confections, commanding guitar buzz, a pair of Spanish-language turns, and unabashed coquettish allure. Too sweet to be toxic, yet of more edgy substance than could ever be located in bubblegum gaggles, Spooky Pink radiates eccentric essence.

Recommended: "Sweetheart," "No Controles," "Stupid Dumb Pathetic Crush!," "Persephone," "Paint the Roses Red," "Sweetheart" (Spanish version)

Video: "Stupid Dumb Pathetic Crush!" (live)
