Somersault
Beach Fossils' 2017 gem Somersault leaps from the hazy dream pop of their Captured Tracks origins into ambitious, sun-dappled maturity.
Dustin Payseur's reverb-soaked guitars and detached vocals swirl with orchestral swells, jangling rhythms, and nostalgic introspection, evoking surf-rock reveries laced with subtle unease. Tracks like the driving "This Year," string-kissed "Tangerine," and nuanced "Saint Ivy" blend Real Estate jangle with retro AM glow, while "Be Nothing" erupts in cathartic release. Amid personal confessions and faint political shadows, this acrobatic evolution cements the band's escape from lo-fi roots, blooming into hypnotic, heartfelt indie splendor.
