' '
,: The Sanddollars EP is the latest offering from WHY?, a folk-pop, :,
: indie-hop, sometimes-mustachioed, psych-rock quartet fronted by :
:' Yoni Wolf, who for the best part of six years has recorded solo ':
,: under the same name; heÆll continue, his identity now merged :,
: with brother Josiah Wolf (a mean drummer who, like Yoni, plays :
:' just about everything), guitarist Matt Meldon, and all-around ':
,: utility man Doug McDiarmid. :,
: :
:' Sanddollars breaks in listeners easy for the (sure to be) ':
,: life-altering full-length Elephant Eyelash. The EP picks up :,
: where Oaklandazulasylum and Early Whitney left off , with WolfÆs :
:' darkly whimsical words curling like creeper vines around an ':
,: ever-widening wall of music. The opening track, ôMiss OhioÆs :,
: Nameless,ö rolls along pastoral and epic while WolfÆs :
:' smile-twisted singsong echoes overtop. The frantic ode to ':
,: youthful vulnerability ô500 Fingernailsö he sings in a deadpan :,
: drawl. The EP moves forward and WHY? digs deeper into their :
:' collective chops and overactive imagination. After the first ':
,: minute, ôSick 2 Thinkö becomes a gorgeously lilting jam for :,
: piano, drums, turntable and bass, while ôNext Atlantaö moves :
:' slowly under the cover of dusk and ôPantone Cyanö is a study in ':
,: Technicolor psychedelics. :,
: :
:' The clip-and-collage aesthetic of WolfÆs earlier efforts has ':
,: grown up into full songs , pretty things with choruses and :,
: falsettos and layers and suchlike. The title track is the most :
:' complete yet (a major-chord-driven piano-fest that devolves ':
,: into a Pavement-worthy comedown), and an apt teaser for whatÆs :,
: to come on Elephant Eyelash dropping in September. :
