PURO INSTINCT




I heard this band kinda a while back now, I posted 'Luv Goon' on here when they were under the name Pearl Harbor. Now as Puro Instinct, these girls are known as LA's haziest sisters, Skylar and Piper Kaplan. Kinda dreamy, kinda Miami Vice, kinda 80' s, All American High School brings to mind. Similar to College or Lovefoxx, the vocals are combined with new synths and psychedelic guitar waves and these minor Russian cultural references . There seems to be a new wave of female fronted, nostalgic showcases of music now. We have suddenly been presented with the likes of Vivian Girls, Best Coast- to name a few. 2011 for PI meant the release of their debut LP 'Headbangers In Ecstasy'. I guess it's easy to compare these Southern Californian sounds of garage-girl bands but notably, it's clear to see that Best Coast perform at a more tunnel for 'radio for beach goers' as PI is more a poolside lounge, kinda scenario as Pitchfork have stated. I like these sisters, I think they're gonna be big.
