Longstocking

Giving a nod to the Breeders and a wink to Sleater-Kinney, Longstocking faithfully create pop gems that are short on sugar and high on rock. Borne of equal parts Noise Pop (churning, sloping guitars), and Power Pop (bittersweet melodies), Longstocking's songs are charming, dreamy bits of unrestrained emotion. Coupled with the vocal harmonies and dyke-friendly lyrics, this music is irresistible.
