Blue Sky Smile Sands Once Seas
Published Apr 01, 2004
Imagine Incubus's Brandon Boyd fronting the Strokes with Fugazi's Ian MacKaye producing the record and you'll begin to get an idea of where Seattle-based Blue Sky Smile are coming from on their debut disc. The music features dual guitar noodling and steady backbeats while vocalist Jerry Kansky delivers his English major-inspired lyrics with passionate melodicism. It's a record that's clever, angular and minimalist with distinctive punk rock underpinnings.
