Garden of Love
Garden of Love formed first in 2022 under the name Jane Harms Love Triangle around songs written by Jane Harms, with Cole Woods of Laughing on drums. Now with Sony Cody (Body Break) taking up the bass guitar they continue to hone a sound that is essentially rock, but with unsubtle hints of synthpop flair and garage punk urgency. Their intricate songs are words of caution to an endangered garden of decadent pleasures. It’s rosespunk for breadpunks. It’s mom punk for dadrockers. It’s stratpunk for teletubbers.
Basically this band is kind of what happens when someone who has a pretty distorted understanding of what’s acceptable tries to write the most universally appealing music she knows how to, with a rhythm section of incredibly talented and similarly twisted fools. Or maybe like, if a drunken Genesis cover band tried to placate a dissatisfied punk audience with sped up Neil Young songs.
