Tangerine Tragic

by The Oklahoma Kid

supported by
Jake
Jake thumbnail
Jake Pushes every part of the emotion-drenched and slightly electronic sound from their first album to the next level, and into a bigger space with more room to breathe - from their angular guitar angst to their soaring choruses. The sound here is still heavy and can bring the screams and fever pitch drums, but it's also breezy now, and is a total soundtrack unto itself. The Oklahoma Kid deserves to be bigger. Something about the way they lay down their tracks makes me feel younger. Favorite track: Dye Black to Pink.
