Sweet Bulbs, "Sweet Bulbs"

So Sweet Bulbs is pretty much perfect in my book. They just released a self-titled album on Blackburn Recordings.

For me, it's like listening to songs about the time that I put "Sweet Avenue" by Jets to Brazil on a Valentine's mix for my girlfriend. Really mellow, distant, but oh so pure in intentions and emotion. Plus it's pretty catchy. In all of the interviews and articles that I've read about them, a slurry of obscure 90s punk and shoegaze bands came up, but this is simpler and better. At the heart it's a really skinny Jawbreaker, trying real hard to stay warm in one of My Bloody Valentine's old sweaters.
