Snailosaur, consisting of NYC natives Paul and Dean Criscitiello, along with Jason Sabshon, released two brand new singles – “Nature” and “Kaleidoscopic Mind” – on September 13.
These two singles follow the release of Talk Therapy, the trio’s debut album which came out at the beginning of this year.
Snailosaur define themselves as “90s-tinged indie guitar poetry, incorporating elements of alternative rock, noise, art rock, shoegaze, and spoken word to create their distinct sound.” The band focuses on blending catchy melodies, distorted guitar solos, and vivid, relatable lyrics with psychedelic undertones. Snailosaur’s unique approach to their vocal arrangement’s create the fuzzy feeling of being wrapped up under a warm blanket.
“Nature & Kaleidoscopic Mind” was recorded by Nate Jasensky in Brooklyn. “Nature” encapsulates the feelings of longing to get away, and in Snailosaur’s case, needing a break from the chaos of city life to take refuge in Upstate New York. Spoken word, deep vocals pair with alternative rock and pop influence to round out the first of two singles.
This transitions into ““Kaleidoscopic Mind,” a more introspective piece, which hones in on feelings of doubt and acceptance. This single’s indie and alternative rock influence, most notably in the main guitar part, builds upon a unique soundscape of effects before dissipating as the song fades out.
“Nature & Kaleidoscopic Mind” by Snailosaur is available on all streaming services here. Find out more about Snailosaur here.
