The Mood: Synaesthesia (Outright Rock)
release: July 1, 2008
style: indie pop
similar: Dressy Bessy
[rating: **] Another New York City-based band selecting California-sun indie pop, the Mood's six-track release has some delightful harmonies and songs such as "Eskimo Scientist" coming from a peaceful people. But as far as indie pop goes, Synaesthesia is too ordinary even with the late '50s guitar strumming in "Suddenly." i'm bored. Better go do a survey on myspace. -Kenyon
