Wet Hair / Glass Fountain

Not Not Fun

BACK IN STOCK!!! “Welcome back. One of NNF’s total favorite active bands return with a second full-length (most of which was recorded during the same sessions that birthed their debut LP, Dream) and we are pleased as spiked fruit punch. The REED / GARBES duo mainly sticks to their guns, mining the same post-Suicide art-trance vein they perfected on Dream, but with Glass Fountain there’s an added emphasis on the disembodied, oscillator pop mode that WET HAIR often toy with. Fountain’s five tracks include some of the band’s simplest but catchiest songs, mesmerizing organ melodies over plink-plonky vintage drum machines with weirdo soulful singing and outer space electronics, like an outsider-punk Silver Apples or something. Hard to say exactly what universe Wet Hair are operating in and that’s probably part of why we love it so much. A killer record that gets better each spin. In jackets with art drawn and designed by the band, plus a pro-printed 11”x11” insert. Edition of 600 (400 on opaque lavendar vinyl, 200 on black).”—NNF
