Pondering on moments of what ifs and why nots, Alvvays conjure up a lullaby to those nothing moments in life.
You know those moments that Dreams Tonite aimlessly taunts itself over. The person you went on two dates with and then neither of you called one other, the awkward hello to a no-one that could have been a someone, Dreams Tonite captures the melancholic vibe that thinking back onto these moments has, even while performed with glossy guitars and more post-80’s dreampop-shoegaze style, with a smooth enough performance from lead singer Molly Rankin to convince you that Dreams Tonite isn’t a warning saying don’t send that 3 am text to an ex, but to in fact call them up, as nothing this glossed over with soft, romantic vibes could possibly mean otherwise.
