Following up dream-pop success “Frames,” released this past May, Sea Salt returns with another gem with the track “Pillow.” Seattle-based Kurtis Roy, the artist behind the project, again consumes with a hypnotic dream-pop sound here; lush vocals and clanging guitars coincide for a serene success, navigating to fluidly blissful hooks, like at 01:22. The “’round my head,” repetition reminds fondly of The Stone Roses. I’m definitely looking to Sea Salt’s upcoming album, coming soon.
