Product description
2ND GRADE, the DIY project consisting of Peter Gill and the appropriately named Ryan Handy, have comfortably settled into their own niche with their latest release, "Easy Listening." This album sees the duo leaning heavily into their lo-fi sound, with catchy hooks and jangly guitars that harken back to the golden days of indie rock. From the first track, "When You Were My Sharona," it's clear that 2ND GRADE are not taking themselves too seriously. With tongue-in-cheek lyrics and infectious melodies, the duo have created a record that is both charmingly amateurish and incredibly endearing. Tracks like "Snakes & Ladders" and "Dinosaur" showcase the band's knack for crafting simple yet effective pop songs that stick in your head long after the final chord has faded. The lo-fi production only adds to the album's charm, giving it a warm, nostalgic feel that is hard to resist. However, "Easy Listening" is not without its missteps. The slower tracks like "Waterfall" and "Wish You Were Here" can feel a bit aimless and meandering, lacking the energy and punch of the album's more upbeat moments. Overall, 2ND GRADE have delivered a solid effort with "Easy Listening." While not groundbreaking or revolutionary, the album is a fun, breezy listen that is sure to put a smile on your face. Sit back, relax, and let 2ND GRADE take you on a journey through their quirky, lo-fi world. You won't be disappointed.
