‘Nishuane Park’, from Raised On Candy, manages to pack in about six different styles of music and several eras in a track that’s just over two minutes long. If it’s anything, it’s shoegaze blended with punk pop, adding some grungy elements, and a bit of 60s rock thrown in for good measure. <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Soaring electric guitars, powerful drums, haunting lead vocals, and retro BVs, it’s nothing, if not unique. In 2 minutes and 5 seconds, the band, who have roots in the San Francisco Bay area and New York tri-state, manage to enthrall and entrance the listener. The music video which accompanies the song is equally intriguing, with a couple chasing each other through Nishunane Park (in Montclair, New Jersey), the camera footage wobbly and hazed in a throwback yellow tinge. The viewer is made to feel they’ve intruded on something, a fly on the wall perspective, yet at the same time there’s the idea that perhaps the couple don’t mind us being there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Raised On Candy features Joe Penna on vocals and guitar, Scotty Imp on drums and percussion, and Kevin Harris, on bass and vocals. Together they pull off what many others have tried before: a sound, which while owing much to those who’ve gone before them – all music is derivative, after all – that’s truly their very own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
