Nick Llobet releases weird alt-pop track “I Got No Car”, plays at Berlin 09.02

NYC songwriter Nick Llobet’s work has been intriguing to say the least, coming off equally as disturbing as compelling. “I Got No Car”, his latest single streaming below, features Nick’s signature quirky and borderline childish sounding vocals, somewhat reminiscent of a lynchian, sped up version of Bob Dylan’s nasal alto, enriched by amusing bursts of odd lyrics. The track’s lo-fi guitar and bass set the DIY tone, together with a simple drum beat, while bright arpeggiating synths are sprinkled on top like colorful sparkles, giving the tune that self-described jangly, “demented pop” vibe. Fans of the bizarre folk-pop of early Ween and Mac DeMarco shouldn’t miss his upcoming live performance is this coming September 2nd at 8PM at Berlin with all girl / all boy, Stringer, and Bernie & The Wolf. – Pearse Devlin
