Sounds Like
Old folks in new jim-jams. Don't call it old-fashioned, cause it is. Still smells good and looks adorable. This is indie rock with a swift kick in the pants. One Drummer, one guitar, a bassplayer and a keyboard. Four people leaning on a fence between past and present tense. Timeless, but effective the band is combining noise and melodie, as well as pop music and a D.I.Y. aesthetic borrowed from post-punk., ahuizotl sounds traditional and modern. Stuck in time with Hüsker Dü, Grandaddy,The Promise Ring, Sebadoh, Wedding Present and Pavement.
