Starlight Mints: Drowation

The third release from Oklahoma avant-garde pop band Starlight Mints delves even deeper into obscurity. Armed with an arsenal of musical instruments that far surpasses your run-of-the-mill indie pop band, listening to Drowaton becomes more of a musical journey than you may have bargained for.

The songs are brilliantly written and performed and lend themselves more to the mad genius of Todd Rundgren than anything else. It’s this sense of chaos that pulls itself together so delicately that makes Starlight Mints stand out as one of the most interesting, albeit unusual pop bands you will ever hear.
