Blackout Summer [Vinyl]
Price 18.51 - 23.32 USD
Vinyl LP pressing of this 2009 release. Hailing from sunny San Diego, California, Christmas Island plays music that on the surface is happy and poppy. There is a dark undercurrent to their brand of lo-fi Pop/Punk--it is joyous and almost twee while secretly depressed and deeply disturbed. Citing Tronics, Urinals, Television Personalities, The Clean, Versatile Newts, and The Fall as influences, Christmas Island is Beach Boys-style, sunny Southern Californian pop by way of the late-"70s/early-"80s UK DIY scene.
