Description:
It's easy to be suspicious. How does a completely unknown band from Los Angeles arrive so fully formed, delivering a self-titled debut album that sounds uncannily like the great lost work of wild-eyed British rockers like the Verve or Oasis?

But it also takes massive pop tunes like "Everything We Are" and "It Ain't Right," which pair dreamy melodies with shuffling psychedelic grooves and just a touch of inoffensive noodling. -- Aidin Vazir
