A Sunny Day in Glasgow - Nitetime Rainbows


Last year's Ashes Grammar helped bring more attention to this Philly (and not Glasgow) based dream pop act as it was well received by critics and helped expand their fanbase. This EP (which takes it's name from a track off of Grammar) features seven tracks, however, four of them are the title song along with three remixes. Nitetime Rainbows offers more of the same in the realm of ambient-based dream pop which adds and removes layers constantly to create a kind of subdued cacophony (see closing moments of "So Bloody, So Tight"). Nothing truly special to be found on this release yet worth a listen, especially on a set of headphones as the songs have a tendency to evoke a disoriented feel thanks to the track's complexities.

2.7/5.0
