Under patterned quilts and fallen autumn leaves lies the lo-fi indie pop of The Snogs.

Earlier this year, The Snogs released the full-length album “Charmless” on the great Discontinuous Innovation Inc. label. Lo-fi room recordings with clear influences from the K Records sphere of the indie rock world. “Boyfriend’s Dead” doesn’t depart too far from this mindset, but the recording, the trade-off between vocals, and song-writing feels more defined and thoughtful.

“The Snogs are a crash pop outfit formed in sleepy Santa Cruz, California in 2016. Set in motion by Ross Barnes, the band has since become a constantly rotating and ever-growing group of friends: Albert, Augie, Claire, Emma, Devin, Greg, Jos, Kal, Katie, Mal, Natalie, Paolo, Percy, Sequoia, Siena, Snow, and of course, T. They’ve never performed with the same line-up twice. If practice makes perfect, sleeping in instead makes The Snogs.”

Barnes says “‘Boyfriend’s Dead’, came about in the same fashion as their previous three tapes. It was written and recorded in my room, after a light breakfast in bed, before settling down in front of the TV for the night. Sequoia Pinterits came down from their bedroom upstairs to sing a few songs. Mal Nisbet, who shares a wall with me, provided the spoken words on “Man Thinks Woman” (originally a tune by the wonderful Vancouver group, Mecca Normal)."

"Boyfriend’s Dead" is meant as a fairytale: "boy meets girl, meets the duchess and the earl, meets the princess and the pea, who chopped down the cherry tree! The Snogs stare towards the flower-spangled future of the international pop underground with pinwheel eyes - and then quickly back down to their shoes. Ciao!”
