News — Shimmertraps

Written by Paria, founder of Kid With a Vinyl

To call Shimmertraps a band would be an understatement. Their music, stunningly colorful, mind-numbingly textured, and blissfully unpredictable, feels more akin to a performance art piece, a full-body deep-dive into an otherworldly atmosphere. While their 2017 debut album Ozius proved their initial skill in fuzzy, introspective lo-fi with hazy, intimate vocals to match, LOOK!,  the Washington-based group’s sophomore album, instead shows a distinct and brilliant evolution for the group, every moment bursting with disco-inspired, glitchy multi-dimensional synth pop, radiating with equal parts intrigue and whimsy.

Welcome Shimmertraps to the label! The Washington-based dream pop band will release their upcoming full-length album in June (SG28). Watch the MV for 'Plume' + read an interview with Pure Nowhere ! Follow Shimmertraps: @shimmertrapsband   Facebook   Spotify   Bandcamp
