I was suitably impressed by Ariel View’s second album Leo from 2017, which has since been taken down from streaming services and is now labeled a “demo” on their bandcamp. The Ontario four-piece have just released the first re-recorded track from that record, called “Friday Nights”. Perhaps a tad over-produced, but the vocals are still the highlight of their sound and should appeal to fans of Tacocat. I’m looking forward to seeing whether this is the first taste of a new record or if Leo is coming out again in its entirety, now that they’ve signed to Epitaph Records.
