Famous World with Spesh - An Interview


Em uma espécie de dream pop retro chic, o quarteto de Seattle, Spesh chamou atenção de inúmeras publicações e rádios especializadas no submundo dos bons sons, como exemplo KEPX.

Navegando por entre as extravagâncias de ícones dos 80´s como Morrissey, Robert Smith e Richard Butler, passando por toques de madchester e britpop noventista os caras cometeram em seu debute, o pegajoso, "Famous World" uma sadia e prazerosa viagem por entre ensolaradas ambientações do universo indie pop, sem soarem piegas ou chiche, apesar de soarem absolutamente nostálgicos. 

Abrace o Spesh neste verão abrasivo do lado de cá do hemisfério ou se você estiver na parte gélida, aquece os tímpanos, o resultado é basicamente o mesmo, pura diversão.
