Over a 16-year career, Montreal's retro pop classicists The High Dials have won a devoted international following and acclaim from critics including NME, Spin, All Music Guide and Brooklyn Vegan. The band's ever-evolving sound is rooted in 60s pop but infused with soul, post-punk and electro pop influences.
The latest album Primitive Feelings is a predatory summer mix of lo-fi 90s grooves, acid rock guitars and razor-sharp humor. In a 4-star review, Shindig Magazine praised its “heady, intoxicating set of tunes which reveal hidden depths with each listen”.
Recommended for fans of the playful, sunny side of psychedelic indie - MGMT, Flaming Lips and Ariel Pink.
