Acidclank seems to have grown quite a bit since last checking in with them. A while back, it was a solo project that leaned towards shoegaze, albeit in a way more interested in catchy melodies than waves of distortion. With new single “Rocks,” Acidclank appears to have a full band behind him, and the sound has moved away from ground-staring to a more skippy, almost indie-pop sound. There’s a sense of aiming for something a little bigger with it…the distance between “Rocks” and the stuff on DYGL’s new album isn’t that far…but with the heart and melody present on Acidclank’s older material still present. Listen above.
