Stereogum's Album of the Week: 'Four of Arrows' by Grand Grandpa - "sweeping and densely layered, chaotic but elementally correct"

"Great Grandpa are nothing if not ambitious. The perpetual push to do better, both artistically and personally, is what drives a lot of 'Four Of Arrows'" - Stereogum writes about second album by the Seattle band Grand Grandpa (they call themselves "snack rock"). What they do is "they blend country twang and emo catharsis into songs that are sweeping and densely layered, chaotic but elementally correct", with emphasis on Alex Menne's voice - "most of these songs are delivered by Menne - and with that voice, it’d be stupid for them not to be".
