This Is Ok For Now

This is the first album from Toronto, Canada's Persian Rugs (distantly following their debut 7 on Cloudberry back in 2011), and it almost slipped through the cracks into obscurity! I found it purely by chance on Bandcamp a few months back and instantly wrote the band requesting that they let me give it the Jigsaw treatment, and lucky for me, they were into it! Have a listen to this band's brand of classic indiepop infused with some dreampop influences - it's as if you melded Jesse Garon & The Desperadoes with Poundsign, adding a bit of Velocity Girl for good measure. Lots of jangly guitars, but with a fair amount of synths involved, as well. It's also a record of many moods, from the ferocity of the opener Bedhead to the easy-going pace of I Wanted Something More to the gentle Cotton Candy, with many points in between (and there are only eight songs!). A truly multi-dimensional record and we're proud to have it in our catalog!
