One High Five's latest album, Beardlip, posits an intriguing duality of playful, almost unflinchingly, upbeat indie rock juxtaposed with heartfelt, honest, and literate lyrics. The album spans raved-up, neo-1960s garage rock, replete with organs and exuberant lead guitar (“Noisemaker”); raucously catchy, indie rock with unexpected dynamic twists and turns (“Fast Food”); and personal reflection tucked away in quirky neo-new wave pop rock ( “Bones Of My Ancestors”). Among other terrain, the 12-song album also traverses stun-gun indie-funk, and artfully-warped rockabilly.
Beardlip was mixed by Jonny Bell (Crystal Antlers, Hanni El Kathib), and mastered by Carl Saff (Sub Pop, Matador Records).

“The Long Beach-based outfit leave shards of music shrapnel flying from each of their songs—shards of jagged, fuzzy, and endlessly fun, musical shrapnel.”
“Perfect for that five keg rager you’re throwing this summer”
“One High Five pushes out scrumptious pop-punk-laced music replete with exuberance and delightful vocal momentum.”
