Be proud to like this “indie” band

Brooklyn quintet Snowmine has found indie-pop perfection with their sophomore album Dialects. Subtle yet effective use of fluttering flutes and pianos can be traced throughout the album most notably on it‰’s opener “To Hold an Ocean‰” and “Rome‰Û. “Glide‰” is a slow burn that flows into both “Plans‰” and “Courts‰” perfectly. Personal favorite, “Silver Sieve‰” layers vocals with instrumentals in a seamless balance, no part overpowering the other. In Dialects, Snowmine embraces indie-pop for all its weirdness and manages to create something both delicate and incredibly powerful. Much more elegant than your standard indie-pop album, Dialects creates a sound not soon forgotten in an overflowing genre.
