Today I’m simply in love with the INTELLIGENCE’s ‘Boredom and Terror’ album. Beautiful trashy lofi pop with a postpunk feel. I don’t know much about INTELLIGENCE but that it seemingly is the bedroom solo thing of Lars Finberg of A-FRAMES and DIPERS fame, and that he’s nicely obsessed with sounds, e.g. he uses his son’s kid’s drumset adding distortion. Short songs, reminding of the fun lofi pop could give me way back when I first listened to Beck’s ‘Mellow Gold’, and the postpunk pleasures of The Fall.
