\"Ruckers-Hill\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Husky
\nRucker\u2019s Hill
\n<\/i>(Nevado Music)
\n4\/5<\/p>\n

Inspired by Australian suburbia, Rucker\u2019s Hill <\/i>is a tempestuous indie-rock EP that will tug your heartstrings. Upbeat vocals with a hint of melancholy drive abstract chord progressions, reminding one immediately of The Shins, with nostalgic and bittersweet lyrics similar to Arcade Fire\u2019s The Suburbs<\/i>.<\/p>\n

The album is refreshingly honest in a sea of budding indie bands riding on the coattails of bands like the aforementioned Shins. The influence is unmistakeable, yet Rucker\u2019s Hill<\/i> provides an experience entirely separate from those that came before them. The title track plays like a lullaby, easing listeners into more upbeat tracks such as \u201cHeartbeat.\u201d<\/p>\n

If you, like myself, have become disillusioned with willowy-voiced indie rock, you\u2019ll appreciate the familiar yet unique ruminations of Husky\u2019s suburban indie-rock sound. Whether you are feeling complacent, sad, elated, or nostalgic, this album certainly deserves a place on your regular playlist.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
