Oakland's The Wind-Ups have such a great and unique sound on their latest single. "A Fine Pink Mist" could have been one of the most sugary singles we've ever covered. The song is unbelievably catchy and has all of the melodic components of a great, poppy song. That is, except for the fact that it's coated in a thick layer of lo-fi fuzz and noise. At some points the fuzz is just barely there, and at others it overwhelms the entire song. But it's always there, throughout. I certainly don't mean that as a negative, and if you also love sugary power pop and fuzzed out noise, you're going to love The Wind-Ups.
You can listen to "A Fine Pink Mist" below. Confection is due out July 11 on Dandy Boy Records, and is available for pre-order through Bandcamp. For more on The Wind-Ups, check out the band on Facebook and Instagram.
