Shut Up I Am Dreaming

The low-fi project that is Wolf Parade member Spencer Krug's Sunset Rubdown specializes in mangled vocals layered over electronically treated keyboards and guitars in an imaginative amalgam of David Bowie, 1990s alternative rockers Ween, and '60s psychedelic duo the Silver Apples. The Canadian group's full-length debut swings between "They Took a Vote and Said No"'s idiosyncratic blend of joyously loopy vocals, half-heard lyrics, and eccentric electronica, and the quietly beautiful, textured sounds of "Swimming."
