Christmas Island / Le Jonathan Reilly- Split 7"

Christmas Island / Le Jonathan Reilly- Split 7". This is a groovy art pop treasure. Christmas Island’s side channels the jangly, reverb-drenched spirit of The Clean and their early- 80s New Zealand peers, weaving surfy melodies with a sun-soaked, beach pop allure.  On the flip, Le Jonathan Reilly complement them nicely belting out a healthy heap of uptempo jagged guitar pop.  Think melodic new wavey power pop, with sweet jangly guitars that nearly drift into psychedelic territory.
