Listen Up! No. 62: No Age - Valley Hump Crash

Having finally got around to throwing this acclaimed LA duo's sophomore effort, Everything In Between, I was hit with two waves of aural stimulation. The ramschackle riffs 'n' drums of the pithier numbers, such as lead single 'Glitter', got me hooked. But it was the hazier efforts, mixing equal parts jangle-pop, shoegaze and dreamy sound collages which kept me hitting repeat play on the stero. This one crystallises a sound founded on stolen ideas but welded into something magnificently unique.
