All Natural Lemon and Lime Flavors - Straight Blue Line - CD
“This stunning collection of early U.S. singles and one previously unreleased track came along after the New Jersey-based
All Natural Lemon & Lime Flavors
had already decided to call it a day. Pity too, as this tremendously underrated dream pop band was one of the most intriguing acts to come along in the post-
My Bloody Valentine
era. Favorably compared to well-known bands like
Stereolab, the Pale Saints,
and early
Boo Radleys,
ANL&LF was considered a contemporaryof labelmates
The Van Pelt
in addition to other lesser-known guitar/keyboard-oriented dream pop/space rock bands like
Secret Shine, Chicklet, the Swirlies, the Lassie Foundation, Rocketship,
and a zillion others). The band's use of dreamy, somewhat androgynous-sounding vocals (think
Thom Yorke
of
Radiohead,
or even
The Cocteau Twins’ Liz Fraser
), pink noise, and analog space pop drones creates vertigo-inducing atmospheres, and includes various elements found in the emo, indie, space rock, and new wave genres. The opening scorcher, "Repetitive Monotonous," is a fine example of what the Flavors were always capable of, with its multicolored starburst of guitar textures and rapturous melody. Other highlights include "Exploded View" and "The Number Knows Its Name."
