"Fading Out" and "Daffy Duck" by Massage

 

Pssst! Hey you -- yes, you. How would you like a massage? Don't worry -- no one is going to put their hands on you. We are proposing an aural treat delivered by LA indie pop band Massage. After four years and several landmark life experiences (good and bad), Massage is preparing to release new album Coaster. We expect to be impressed by the groups alchemy of Britpop, dream pop and shoegaze. And having listened to their previous album Still Life earlier today, we know that we won't be disappointed.

Two of the album's songs have been shared. "Fading Out" is Britpop flavored with a hint of J&MC. "Daffy Duck is a propulsive shoegaze gem. Adding it up, our math says this is going to be a very good album. Cynics might point out that when it comes to WYMA math, main writer Scott was a history major with two law degrees. Nevertheless, with respect to music, our taste is impeccable.

Massage are Alex Naidus, Andrew Romano, Gabi Ferrer, Natalie de Almeida, and David Rager. Coaster will be released October 10 via Mt. St. Mtn. (USA), Bobo Integral (Eur), and Prefect Records (UK).
