Hoop Dreams — Memory Light
Boy Attractions output has slowed to a trickling halt for the last few days, and for that I’m terribly sorry. We’ve all been tied up with our respective internships/summer nonsense, and bloggin’ has unfortunately taken the backseat. While I’ll admit I’m pretty disconnected from the happenings of Tumblr (as well as the developments in our overflowing inbox), I have gotten to spend some quality time with a few new releases. Hoop Dreams’ XCPR single (out now on Captured Tracks) is one those releases.
While their name suggests some synth-driven sunny-day fare, this VA group peddles a brand of spare, vaguely haunted indie pop that’s earned them comparisons to The Cure and Joy Division. B-side “Memory Light” certainly smacks of the latter’s influence, navigating corridors of freeze-dried melodies and tense, propulsive rhythms. The flipside’s “XCPR”, which sees the band in full-on jangle pop mode, can be heard on The Line of Best Fit.
