Massage – “Crying Out Loud” & “Under”

Massage – “Crying Out Loud” & “Under”

Massage are a new project from former Pains Of Being Pure At Heart bassist Alex Naidus, an LA-based quintet specializing in a timeless, exceedingly appealing form of jangly indie-pop. They self-released their debut EP Lydia earlier this year, and now they’ve followed it up with a new single recorded with Papercuts’ Jason Quever. A-side “Crying Out Loud” is a pleasantly wistful sigh buoyed up by keyboardist Gabi Ferrer’s conversational vocals, while b-side “Under” has a little more kick to it, propelled along by a driving riff and some lovely boy-girl harmonies. Listen to both below.
