The cover art for this EP is so befitting of the music contained within: summery dream pop goodness that makes you think of swimming pools and sunny days. San Francisco's Modern Charms have garnered a lot of attention with this self-titled debut, and it's not hard to see why. With a sound that can be likened to a sedated Medicine or even a more languid My Bloody Valentine in some places, the six blissfully hazy songs have enough originality to stay refreshing in an ocean of lukewarm pretenders. Almost a year after the release date, this debut has lost none of the luster and keeps me coming back for more. "Soothing" is definitely a good descriptor, as it's very easy to become lost in the embrace of Modern Charms.
