Summer Hymns
Label: MisraGenre: Pop, Slowcore
I 'm brand new to Summer Hymns, so the huge back catalogue of free, downloadable tracks on both the band and label websites might take some time to work through. Also, the critical commentary, like the idea that their recent album Backward Masks is "the Summer Hymns record you always thought they'd make" doesn't do much for me because I don't know what they're supposed to sound like. In other words, this blurb for the band is essentially useless. That said, "Pity and Envy" and especially "Start Swimming" are textured, mellow pop songs that seem to fit the band's name, and are perfect for dreaming of those June days when the sun sets closer to ten o'clock than five, and that much I know for sure.
