The Super Vacations do a slightly lopsided & drowsy take on psychedelic lo-fi rock. They've a new 7" EP on red vinyl and its ace! 'Henry' spits out of the speakers like a cross between Apples in Stereo & early Television Personalities, 'The Void' is a more languid beast with curious flecks of New Wave bands such as Television & a bit of a skewed Ariel Pink feel. Hazy, muffled vocals top the faintly "hauntological" vibe they give off. There's hints of early 90s bands such as New Radiant Storm King & Treepeople on the fabulous 'Ten Second Freak Out' - all these fuzzy, spiraling shards of guitar all over the shop with lovely off-kilter hooks, excitable, itchy drums & blurred vocals that define the word "impenetrable". The last track 'The Paradise' carries on throwing addictively catchy shapes at you, the whole group playing with a joyous, sloppy abandon that thoroughly energises my soul. I got their last album back at home & that fucking rocks too. The down at-heel slacker spirit I've always adored is kicking gleefully away within these grooves. Great art too, on Shdwply.

What their label says...

Definitely one of the more ambitious and mysterioso bands of this run-down, SUPER VACATIONS provide a perfect example of a group turning the limitations of home-recording to their advantage, assembling a beguiling psych rock sound from the palette of slightly warped rock n' pop elements at their disposal. Inevitably, Super Vacations' songwriting is sketchy, but nonetheless, they've got a good handle on the kind of sound they're going for, allowing them to stand proud alongside the very best of the '90s neo-psych-pop mob (Lilies, The Swirlies, pre-ego meltdown Brain Jonestown Massacre etc.) without ever having to venture beyond their basement."-Shdwply: This band will deliver one of the albums of 2010, get on the ride now!!!
