Assumption Number One: Angel Abaya is just another standard-fare or otherwise one-note indie artist. Not at all. It’s an easy path to be cynical when critiquing. It’s also a great method to never listen to, see or experience anything new. One might see Angel at first glance and think she’ll sing some indie-tinged derivative of country. But that’s forgetting she has a foot set in both Boise and Los Angeles. Undaunted by any assumption, she dips toes in folk and punk energy, crafting an appeal somewhere between Slow Pulp and Indigo De Souza. Sprightly in the pop rock moments, nervy in the punk garage ones, Angel wants it all. From the folksy title track of her debut album The Bubble (out now on Earth Libraries) to the dream pop drama of “Becoming (Is It Forgotten?);” from the electric bubble machine start of “Over / On / Under” to the dance punk finale of “GET,” Angel wants it all, and she takes it.
