Starcleaner Reunion – “Lay On Plastic Moment”
The debut Starcleaner Reunion album is going to be good. The up-and-coming NYC dream-pop band has shared the stunning Umbrella singles " Weather Instrument " and " Never Odd Or Even " so far, and today they're leaning into Cocteau Twins influence with the swooning song "Lay On Plastic Moment." The post Starcleaner Reunion – “Lay On Plastic Moment” appeared first on Stereogum .
The debut Starcleaner Reunion album is set to be a promising release. The NYC dream-pop band has already shared two singles, "Weather Instrument" and "Never Odd Or Even," and have now unveiled "Lay On Plastic Moment." This track draws inspiration from the Cocteau Twins' style.
Singer Jo Roman revealed that she wrote the lyrics for "Lay On Plastic Moment" to nostalgically capture her intricate journey of reacquainting herself with New York. She shared that this city had been her home for most of her childhood until her family had to relocate. Returning to New York in 2023 was initially exhilarating, but finding her footing proved challenging.
Roman explained that she spent her time re-exploring familiar spots in the city. While this process was often melancholic, there were always signs of hope - such as finding solace in a small apartment or her tiny room. The band's video for "Lay On Plastic Moment" was directed by Siân Lathrop & Patrick Drummond.
