I’ve had this track on my personal back burner for about a week now, waiting for some time in my schedule to sit down and write about it. The band, however, has been decidedly impatient with me, as every time I log in to Facebook I see an advertisement for downloading it in my sidebar. While this post undoubtedly won’t stop the targeted advertising, it will at least quell any guilt I’ve been feeling for not writing about it sooner.

So, here we have Smallpools. In demographic terms, the band hails from Los Angeles. In logistical terms, there are four members of the band. In astronomical terms, they sound like the months that take place between the Summer Solstice and the Autumnal Equinox. “Dreaming” is the only single they have at this point, but it’s a perfectly anthemic gem that falls somewhere on the continuum between the pop-punk forebears and Passion Pit.

It’s downloadable for free if you follow the link in the Soundcloud stream; you just have to trade them your email address. This might be the only thing we’ve heard from Smallpools at this point, but it’s certainly not going to be the last we hear from them.
