Greens Pool sounds like a memory of a beach trip that has been left out in the sun until the colors have begun to bleed.
It is a stark departure from the high-voltage, synth-heavy glam rock that Pond would later become famous for. Instead, this release captures the band in a moment of quiet, lo-fi experimentation, where acoustic guitars are layered with thick tape hiss and vocals are submerged in oceanic reverb. It feels tactile and handmade, much like the 300 unique hand-painted covers that accompanied its original physical release.

Ocean saturates this record far more than the artist's norm.
