Influenced by Low and My Bloody Valentine, Canadian band Alvvays are adding some fuzz to their soft poppy sound.
On their new album, Blue Rev, the Toronto five-piece leans into the reverb and distortion while keeping the shimmery and catchy hooks.
It’s a rollicking force filled with witty lyrics that stay abstract enough to relate and morph into any listeners personal situation. Like tossing on a vintage leather coat that fits surprisingly well. We’re checking out Blue Rev, from Alvvays as The Current’s Album of the Week.
