While I’m not totally sold on his vocals there is so much to recommend on Art Imperial’s free ‘Surf Suburban’ EP. For one it contains enough gilded chord movements over its 6 tracks to fill a C86 revival weekend. The fact that the songs are resplendent in lo-finess helps but there is a canny mind at work, this is someone who is able bring the melodies from deep inside out in the open without losing any of their inherent power. We’ve all heard the perfect song inside our head while lying on a sopping pillow late at night but the gift is turning those moments into recorded evidence. Art Imperial has succeeded so here’s hoping he fails to find a cure for that rampant insomnia of his. KD
