"Seasons Of Me" from the Snuggalos album "Seasonal Depression" is fuzzy gazed poetry

"congratulations"

Seasons Of Me from The Snuggalos 4th album "Seasonal Depression" is a lo-fi dreamy affair with hushed vox and clean guitar lines with the appropriate note bends in the right places. This sound deserves it's very own genre because you know it when you hear it. It is the kind of half shoe gaze, tenderly poetic slow burn with sad reflections at every turn. The kind of song that David Dean Burkheart likes to make his home made videos out of, although he seems to have eased up on that (too bad). And while it may sound, to those of you who don't know me, that I am giving Seasons Of Me a sideways glance, I am not. I really love The Sunggalos sound, who are, by the way, the two person "studio" band of Morla & Daniel McCarthy. What's not too like? The haze of distorted guitars, an elegant post punk simplicity and dreamy, lovely lyrics. 

The seasons of me
change so frequently
when I'm so unsure
I close my eyes to see
when the wind speaks
I drift with the leaves
when I'm so unclear
I keep quiet to hear

I fear I know
what it is you seek
but I need you most
to desire me
Stepping off of an
impossible dream

The Snuggalos are based out of Fredericksburg, Virginia.
