Carroll Streams 'Expansive' s/t Album on Consequence of Sound

Minneapolis's Carroll are a four-piece specializing in making dreamy pop tunes with a blend of wurly synths and fuzzy, reverb-dipped guitar leads. This musical identity is showcased on the band's exemplarily lead single, "Alligator," with a collection of guitar riffs being introduced and built up into a pseudo-orchestral swirl. The synth is pulled more into the focus on the ethereal "Green Acres," while a more eclectic group of psychedelic guitar hits, flangy sweeps, and feedback loops dance on top of the synth foundation.

Their self-titled debut LP is out September 18th on Entertainment One Music but is available for early streaming on Consequence of Sound. Written in a cabin out in the remote Northern wilderness, the demos found their way into the hands of producer Jon Low (The War on Drugs, The National), who had the band come to Philadelphia where they recorded and mixed the album in an 18-day marathon.

Carroll deliver a hypnotic exploration that is directed by the group's musicianship and style, making Carroll as thoughtful as it is fun. The four components to a singular vision are sure to find a home on dials and stages near you very soon.
