65. POCAHAUNTED "THRESHOLD"


this is a bit after the fact, but i've only just recently gotten round to listening to the mesmerising output of noise-pop/psych folk outfit Pocahaunted, so here is one of their wonderfully blissed-out, jangly swan-songs, Threshold from their 'final' release "Threshold" 7" (2010).

"Pocahaunted were the self-proclaimed 'Olsen twins of blissed out drone'"

Pocahaunted were primarily the awesome talents of Amanda Brown aka LA Vampires et Bethany Cosentino aka Best Coast, who is not featured on Threshold , but you can check out her wailing et chanting on the stunningly epic Ashes in White, an early Pocahaunted "hypnogagic pop" track i'm also posting.


MP3: Threshold 

et here are a few classic tracks for those not familiar with Pocahaunted to get you hooked!

MP3: Ashes in White {from "Island Diamonds" (2008)}


MP3: Make it Real {from "Make It Real" (2010)}

if you like what you hear, you can find most of the Pocahaunted albums, EPs et singles online from itunes or at NotNotFun.
