‘Cinnamon Sea’ is the perfect introduction to one of the most mysterious, ever-morphing underground bands from New Zealand. The Garbage and the Flowers make their long awaited return with another psychedelic masterpiece from the band that gave us 1997’s cult dreampop gem ‘Eyes Rind As If Beggars‘. A hybrid fusion of the Velvets, Elephant 6 and any God-fearing stoned strummers you can think of, with a nod to Charlie Manson’s bedside balladry to boot.
“By some measure Wellington’s most brilliant pop band, The Garbage & The Flowers are classic underground rock’n’roll with a hazy ramshackle sound pockmarked by bursts of genius.” Forced Exposure
