Pulling from disparate influences—Wire’s post-punk, Springsteen’s everyman anthems, along with echoes of dreamy atmospheres of Dave Roback’s Rain Parade and the jangly buzz of Kiwi pop legends The Clean—Chicago’s NE-HI have a knack for knitting something comfortable and warm from those art school cast-offs and cult favorites. Their second album, Offers, is out now.
