The Perfect Glossy Pop Song

‘Wendy’ is glossy, retro pop at its shiniest and most fun with lush harmonies that are somewhere between boyband and Beach Boys. Attic Lights have certainly been plundering Brian Wilson’s works for inspiration as rich glowing melodies are backed up by sweeping mixtures of guitars and strings to give a grand feel. It could be genius, or it could be reinterpreting classics, depending on how you see these things and whether classics needed a fresh, new touch. Attic Lights are certainly making an impression on the current music scene, and it’s easy to see why, with such honey-smooth tunes that are simply easy on the ear and delightfully fresh in sound. This is pop music as its purest and most unadulterated, why ask for more?
