The jangly, self recorded ramblings of Brooklyn’s DUSTIN PAYSEUR, BEACH FOSSILS offers hauntingly catchy tunes that blend the energy of an impulsive road trip with the melodious wandering of a lucid dream. Sun drenched riffs, kaleidoscopic rhythms and hazy lyrics saturate Beach Fossils’ first release, the album’s carefree vibe is perfectly summed up through song titles such as “Daydream,” “Vacation,” and “Lazy Day.” Now flanked by band members JOHN PENA and SENNOTTBURKE, Beach Fossils turned out to be one of the most talked about acts at this year’s SXSW. UK touring plans to be announced soon. “...hints at nostalgia that goes deeper and more distant than a few summers past.”—Stereogum. Received a 7.8 rating from Pitchfork.
