Iamloveproof : Atacama

Featuring members of Pollyanna and Violetine, Iamloveproof is a mostly local band that is partial to the plodding guitar noise of late '90s indie rock; the barely-shifting riffs, the droning, depressive mood and the anguished vocal stylings of so many well-forgotten bands. Atacama is maudlin and slow-moving, and doesn’t improve MOR '90s indie rock in any way that would justify its revival.
