Longstocking - Once Upon a Time Called Now (1997) [Hi-Res]

Longstocking, a Los Angeles-based queer band, remains one of the most underrated acts of the 1990s despite their brief career. Their sole full-length album, Once Upon a Time Called Now, delivers energetic pop-punk characterized by radio-ready anthems reminiscent of The Breeders. The record's distinction lies in Tamala Poljak’s exceptional songwriting and a pervasive sharp wit found in both lyrics and song titles. This blend of infectious melodies and humor defines the album as a quintessential example of high-quality alternative pop.
