Wolf Parade Shows a Mature, Polished Side on 'At Mount Zoomer'new

Part of it is the recording: It sounds more professional. The drums are mixed down and don't have that ragged, recorded-in-a-concrete-closet feeling. The record has more interest in melody--guitars are used as paint instead of gasoline.

Under the Shinfluence

Oakland, Calif.'s, Rogue Wave is a perfect example of the new Sub Pop signee. Its music is mellow, catchy, and rooted in indie-rock tradition. It's not as blue-collar brutal as, say, Tad or Soundgarden, but it's not wholly without aggression or grandiosity, either.
