Loved writing about the sources of Esteban Flores' southwestern emo-tinged grungegaze. Plus, I really want to steal the name "Slow Joy". Thanks, Chicago Reader Gman Tavern https://chicagoreader.com/music/concert-preview/slow-joy-gman-tavern/

On his newest album, Flores lays out angsty vocals over a foundation of gritty punk guitar to create melanges of grungy shoegaze.
