watch: “the kids were wrong” – memoryhouse
Dream pop duo Memoryhouse recently released their first full-length, The Slideshow Effect, on Sub Pop, and they’ve got a video for the track ”The Kids Were Wrong”.
Departing from the slow, hazy sound on their EP The Years, this track features a stronger beat and a faster tempo. Though I loved the slow vibe on the EP, the speed definitely works to keep the song moving.
Lyric to Ponder: “Tear the seams, we’re not aging/ Beneath these trembling star-lit skies”
