INDIE ROCK
After a couple long years of quietude, Craft Spells (the songwriting vehicle of dream pop scholar Justin Vallesteros) reemerge with Nausea. The album shares a name with a Sartre novel about existential angst. The buoyant synths that once dominated Craft Spells’ sound have been largely swapped out in favor of moody string arrangements and pensive, piano-based compositions. While that might sound like a blueprint of boilerplate growing pains, Nausea is both mellowed and emboldened by actual adult hurt, most evident on the seasick yet crestfallenly pretty title cut.
