It follows last August’s EP “Crushed Like the Car,” whose title […]

We consider ourselves indie-pop devotees at Buzz Bands LA, but on most matters involving blissful, jangling guitars we defer to Marion Hodges, the KCRW DJ, show promoter, dance-night host, record-spinner and fellow Pastels fans whom we met once upon a time over a Tullycraft song at Pehrspace. Hodges, who’s been known to keep us sane […]

Jangle-pop maestros Army Navy are at it again, plotting their third album (due later this year) and generally parting any clouds that block your musical blue skies.
