She's So Rad - in circles

She's So Rad marry shoegaze noise with electronics and the result is quite something. Almost simultaneously familiar and new, pop glorious and experimental.

"Iceblock" has a driving guitar pulse but married to an uplifting chorus, the effect is mesmeric and powerful. "Circles" is a more straightforward rock song with plenty of noise and jangly pop joy. "Videos" drives along with an electronically enhanced beat and feedback noise pierced by beautiful guitars.

"Fourtrax" is more experimental, slabs of noise. "Georgie's Song" stands out by being a much lighter, melancholic track but beneath the gentle melody you can feel the undercurrent of noise menace. "Lights" is simply magic, waves of feedback producing what can only be described as a melody of sheer beauty.
