Charleston Sc duo cover highly familiar territory on third album Bright. This is the sound of Shoegaze, and most particularly My Bloody Valentine, Lush and Slowdive. The record sets off on these rails and never departs from them. It's Shoegaze MOR in many respects, a mellow listening experience akin to burrowing down under the duvet and having a lie in.
It's also probably the definition of lack of adventurism. Where you stand on Bright probably depends on whether you expect a record or an artist to take risks or not. This one doesn't on any levels but succeeds in terms of the objectives it lays out for itself.
