Second Of Spring

Beaches' third album blends droning guitar jams with poppier, song-driven moments. The first half builds from noise-heavy instrumentals into psychedelic shoegaze and heavy ballads. The second half shifts toward dreamier, hookier arrangements with sharper dynamics and fuller production. It culminates in "Mutual Delusion," a hypnotic post-rock closer that offers respite after an hour of enveloping guitar work. Essential for psychedelic guitar fans.
