"Pop Filter is a new Australian band whose members stretch between cities and who’s shared history binds them together. With the number one goal being that of nurturing their friendship and continuing to make music together at an age when children, work, and distance can easily hamper this."
So states the descriptor in on the right of their Bandcamp page. The members have been playing music together since 2009, initially as The Ocean Party. They all have different projects (in fact, Liam Halliwell - Snowy - has a new album, "Age Difference"), but they always come back together, now as Pop Filter (Melbourne).
I blew it. When "CONO" came out I waited too long to nab the LP. I'm not making that mistake again, especially after hearing "Fragile". This might be one of the loudest Pop Filter/Ocean Party songs I've ever heard.
I'm also listening to the new Nap Eyes right now (it will probably be tomorrow's post). I guess I never realized how much Pop Filter/Ocean Party and Nap Eyes languid songs complement each other.
Pop Filter's "Ray and Lorraine's" is released by Bobo Integral and Osbourne Again.
