The Courtneys – The Courtneys LP

Description

Though inspired by classic Flying Nun and C86 era bands, THE COURTNEYS sound is not tied to one single era. A penchant for pop craft collides with the trios shambolic musicianship, resulting in slacker punk thats at once sweet and subtle. The bands unassuming namesake, COURTNEY, brings the fuzz with her guitar playing. Drummer JEN (who spent time in Mac DeMarco’s former band, MAKEOUT VIDEOTAPE) is both the backbone and front person of the group singing about boys, Keanu Reeves and other pressing concerns. SYDNEYs driving bass lines hold everything together and provide traction for the eight impressive tracks on the bands vinyl debut. The Courtneys also marks the vinyl return of Vancouvers Hockey Dad Records, the label behind cult classic releases from White Lung, Defektors, Fun 100 and B-Lines.
