Debut album from Communist Daughter, an indie band named after the Neutral Milk Hotel song. Led by the vocals of John Soloman (and female backgrounds) this here is a melancholy (lyric wise) pop album with upbeat melodies and stylings. Sadness streams out of the speakers in a soft wave that is more comforting than depressing. This cd feels nostalgic to me, like I’ve heard it before but not in a bad way, it makes me think of driving around in high school or something like that. It’s kind of sugar sweet.
