Having spent their early days recording in a Cold War-era bunker, the band has been tightening up their sound in advance of their first album release, <em>Hum.\u00a0<\/em>The record is\u00a0out now through Beyond Records.<\/p>\n<p>Hum often has a psychedelic folk feel that moseys along until you realize that the album is actually over, and you have just been humming to yourself. Playing largely\u00a0within the same genre, each song still has a particular taste to it. This is particularly true for some of the album\u2019s best songs such as \u201cNew Harmony\u201d and \u201cThere Aren\u2019t Many Things.\u201d \u201cNew Harmony\u201d brings to mind &#8217;90s bands like The Cranberries, a sound that is still cohesive with the rest of the album.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere Aren\u2019t Many Things\u201d plays more like the bedroom rock many have come to know through the likes of Frankie Cosmos. The song\u2019s introverted, emotionally authentic lyrics jive with that idea as well. Overall, this is a strong debut from Eerie Wanda that will mosey its way into your heart.<br \/>\n<b><br \/>\nRecommended If You Like: Hinds, Broadcast, Frankie Cosmos<br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Recommended Tracks: 4 (New Harmony), 7 (Hum), 9 (The Reason), 13 (There Aren&#8217;t Many Things)<br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Do Not Play: None<br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Written by Zach Hill on 03\/02\/16 <\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A strong debut album from the band working out of Amsterdam.
