Waxahatchee
Out In The Storm
[Merge]
Katie Crutchfield’s Waxahatchee project continues to marvellously mine the deep well of ’90s alternative rock in all the right ways.
Its insistent ‘dum-dum-dum-dum’ basslines, impassioned double-tracked vocals, and ‘just so’ distortion on the choruses sends one into a reverie for Pacific Northwest feels, plaid shirts, and Doc Martens.
Out In The Wild could easily soundtrack the inevitable Singles remake.
