Review:
After daydream philosopher Sean Nicholas Savage left Montreal’s Silly Kissers, three of the cult group’s members split off and built a new vessel for dreamy, cloudbusting indie-pop. It’s hard not to love the resultant four-piece, TOPS, who sound like besotted teenagers huddled up by the hearth dreaming of some strange pop stardom. Second album filled with yearning riffs and subtle drum machine and synth sounds. High pitched female vocals.
