I thought shitgaze was going the way of the trash spectrum. It seemed like each new release was recorded to a lower fidelity medium. Cassette tapes are now all over the place. Home-burned CD-Rs have come and gone and showed up again. Even Times New Viking recorded to a VHS tape in 2009. Hell, if we’ve figured out how to press music to a piece of paper, then why is Seattle’s Witch Gardens now abandoning suit and recording clean guitars and un-reverbed vocals to vinyl? Just what in the hell is going on here?
Listen for yourself below and check out this fancy, highfalutin 7-inch EP over at Waterwing Records.
