"Dedicated to the power of pop music, Sobs are Singapore’s premier indiepop propagandists. After releasing a breakout bedroom pop EP Catflap and a dream-jangle LP Telltale Signs that brought international embrace, Sobs now assemble a front-to-back indiepop behemoth – Air Guitar – after a much anticipated three-year wait.

A thirty-minute trip for the post-Internet consumer, Air Guitar calibrates inventive pop hooks for the indie rock lover, instantly accessible yet intricately arranged. The album draws a line through the history of pop stylistics from 80s new wave (""Last Resort"") and 90s power-pop (""Burn Book"") to 00s sk8er punk and radio pop (""Air Guitar""). Further informed by the cosmopolitan, culturally astute ethos of PC Music – Sobs connects the uptempo of Shibuya’s Advantage Lucy (""Lucked Out""), heart-on-sleeve indie rock of Bettie Serveert and Big Star (""World Implode""), with the eclecticism of New York’s Darla Records (""Friday Night"") to define the pulse of indiepop then and now."
