West Yorkshire’s Louis Jones (a.k.a. one-man band Spectrals) has been building up a fan base in North America from a solid string of seven-inches and some relentless touring, including a stint with Girls. In typical woozy and starry-eyed malaise, Spectrals brings us “Chip A Tooth (Spoil A Smile)” off the recent Extended Play EP (Moshi Moshi). It’s a simple, playful and, above all, tuneful track, and Spectrals continues to impress as we wait on a full-length for more of Jones’ ebullient, jangly dream pop. As a bonus, here’s an mp3 of another Extended Play track, “I Ran With Love But I Couldn’t Keep Up.”
