Album Notes

After spending the better part of 2007 as a revolving door membership noise collective, The Softrocks have returned to the land of actual chords and mandatory practices, but still use pretentious words like “sound shapes” and “sonic aesthetic”. Their second album, Summer Apocalypse, was recorded in Ohio by Guided by Voices/Robert Pollard cohort Todd Tobias, and features ten little indie-pop nuggets coated in just enough of the residual feedback and bleeps of their former days to keep it dangerous. 2008 looks to be a banner year for the boys as they brave the cyclones of the great plains, the oppressive heat of the Dixie sun, and the crossed arms of hipsters along the coasts, all to bring their music to a city near you.
