So…would you? Cause it is, kind of. Last May I asked “whether or not stoner rock can flow seamlessly into a melodic pop-guitar crunch;” the answer which was obvious at the time was yes, indeed, and the perpetrators of this unusual output are none other than Delaware’s two-piece The Sky Drops. The band is kind of strange in terms of shoegaze, yet are entirely indicative of the sound.  You’re going to hear fuzz, you’re going to hear distortion, your going to hear layered vocals, and hopefully you’re going to like it.  These new tracks coincide with the band’s upcoming tour:
