The idea of very melodic rock songs buried in noise is anything but new (many shoegazer bands made abundant use of this idea), but Sweet Bulbs find a way to make it sound different. Their almost bubblegum pop female vocals are buried in a deli-rious (and deli-cious) mess of distorted guitars. But these guitars don't drone - this is not shoegazer. It's rather an interesting brand of noise pop that brings together extreme melody in the vocals and extreme noisyness in everything else. Fun!
The band will release their debut CD at Silent Barn on 11.13.
