Yellow Vinyl - Delaware is one of the classic shoegaze records. Formed in Boston in 1991, Drop Nineteens instantly attracted much attention from the UK media and record companies, eventually signing to Hut records. Their debut Delaware is a beautiful record, noisy and melodic in equal measures, a record that is full of youth and innocence. The mix of the predominately english shoegaze style with a more american style akin to the Pixies and Sonic Youth gave Drop Nineteens a distinctive sound. The album has instant pop thrills such as 'Winona', rambling lsd influenced lo-fi epics such as 'Kick the Tragedy', indie pop gems such as 'Your Aquarium', with a cheeky and full blooded cover of madonna's 'Angel' thrown in for good measure - yet it still hangs together as a coherent album.
