The queer indiepop four-piece from New York plays a kind of music I don&#8217;t usually go for.

I was drawn in by album opener <em>Everything But You,<\/em> a minor masterpiece with soulfully sung deeply personal lyrics, wandering instruments, cool guitar licks and a slow buildup to a cathartic release. The sheer musical talent and the willingness to travel different musical paths in the song distantly reminds me of Unknown Mortal Orchestra&#8217;s <em>II<\/em> album. <em>Everything But You<\/em> essentially offers a blueprint of the music of Recreational Mouthwash, a band that takes their time in building up tension in their songs and play around with delayed rewards for listeners. The emotional edge, sense of urgency, the stellar guitar work and pop sensibilities in the music of Recreational Mouthwash sets the band up for a bigger stage, and I wouldn&#8217;t be surprised to see this band explode rather sooner than later. <em>If That Means Anything<\/em> is quite the leap\u00a0from my usual musical diet, but I like it a lot.<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=2876756050\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=de270f\/tracklist=false\/artwork=small\/transparent=true\/\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/recreationalmouthwash.bandcamp.com\/album\/if-that-means-anything\">If That Means Anything by Recreational Mouthwash<\/a><\/iframe><br \/>\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=2876756050\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=de270f\/tracklist=false\/artwork=small\/track=998602373\/transparent=true\/\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/recreationalmouthwash.bandcamp.com\/album\/if-that-means-anything\">If That Means Anything by Recreational Mouthwash<\/a><\/iframe><br \/>\nAdd to wantlist: <a href=\"https:\/\/recreationalmouthwash.bandcamp.com\/album\/if-that-means-anything\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bandcamp<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am not sure how I stumbled upon If That Means Anything , the debut album by Recreational Mouthwash.
