Montreal’s Prism Shores scan through the static of indie pop’s past, meshing the camps together, working patchwork pop with the best of them. Their ability to boil down their influences into a record that rides the highs & lows of the fuzz coffers is on full display on Softest Attack. bit.ly/4tb2A75

Album Of The Day: “Softest Attack.” In a crowded jangle pop field, Prism Shores strikes an ideal balance between sweet and serrated.

Still on repeat: Prism Shores — Softest Attack One of those records that keeps growing with every listen! prismshores.bandcamp.com/album/softes...

‘Softest Attack’ is a bold reclamation of the power-pop canon. It is an intelligent, meticulously layered work that proves Prism Shores are no longer just scholars of their influences, but essential contributors to the modern indie landscape.

Out now: Prism Shores — Softest Attack Jangly indie pop, fuzzy power pop and shimmering shoegaze — their most immediate and melodic record yet. prismshores.bandcamp.com/album/softes...
