99¢ DREAMS

You’re just asking for unfair Chvrches comparisons by using “v” as a vowel in your artist name, and while TVRQUOISE doesn’t tread the same creative grounds as the Scottish group, there are some similarities. Most key is that both make interesting pop that’s just left of the mainstream, although TVRQUOISE is more indebted to dream pop and psychedelic music. The album-opening title track sets the tone, establishing an ethereal pop atmosphere, while “Island” could even pass as a modernized take on U2’s The Unforgettable Fire.
