HELPFUL PEOPLE - Brokenblossom Threats LP

Limited edition of 300 copies.

Highly recommended.

Glenn Donaldson of The Reds, Pinks And Purples / Skygreen Leopards, pairs with Carly Putnam of The Mantles in a sun-washed, melancholy vision of jangle-pop, yoked with a heavy-heart and a liberal dose of soft-focus fuzz.

"All praise to the underground labels out there who not only put out cool records but also inform us about cool projects we would’ve otherwise never known existed. Perhaps you’re like me, a solid Glenn Donaldson fan who somehow missed that he had a new charming indie duo going with Carly Putnam (of Art Museums and The Mantles; presumably no relation to Seth). I may be fast approaching my personal quota of shambolic low-energy Bay Area twee, but Helpful People are more on the blissful-yet-sturdy indie-pop side of the street, a sound that, much like dessert, I always have room for." - YGR
