Goldmine Finds Fruit Bats Compelling

According to Goldmine, Fruit Bats “sounds fresh and vital at every turn… after more than 25 years of making exceptional albums and mining a style that finds a divide between accessible power pop and intelligent indie rock.” New LP The Landfill, out now via Merge Records, is “a compelling collection from beginning to end, and indeed, a fine reflection of Johnson’s unwavering instincts,” the site writes.
