Bloomington, Indiana's Hoops will release their full-length debut album Routines on May 5th via Fat Possum, but the record can be heard one week early courtesy of Hype Machine. A bittersweet and honest record that was masterfully crafted by the band's three songwriters, Routines is full of blissed-out hyper-melodic songs, built around power-pop chords, deceptively complex drum patterns, and rock-anthem sentiments. Listen to your new favorite summertime album and one of 2017's best debuts HERE.
