Double Vanity finds BRONCHO steadily moving ahead, transforming the raw angst of the first record into a sound decidedly more layered and complex. Riffing off the later explorations of punk, culling up refracted images of John Hughes prom nights, love songs echoing from a boom box held high. Strut with an “when ‘80s met ‘50s” swagger, discord transformed into a jagged, frenetic pop.
