Cave Mode Shake – Time Traveler’s Party

Openly citing The Strokes, Tame Impala and Radiohead as your influences is a quick way to earn a massive eyeroll from any potential new listener. One false move and you’ve gone from skeptical intrigue to flat-out miserable mockery. Fortunately, East Nashville’s Cave Mode Shack manages to not fuck it up.

The debut EP, Time Traveler’s Party, clocks in around 15 minutes. There’s very little room for filler and they make great use of it; exploring some breezier lighter pop with the likes of “End of Days” and even some more upbeat, fist-pumping, fair with “Good Girl.”

It’s certainly a promising first offering and well worth keeping an eye out for live shows and a future full-length.
