Los Angelino indie-rock oddballs The Outline are more fey, more moody and more dramatic than before on Phantasmagoria. But can the kids see the curve coming?

The Outline have ambition and ideas aplenty; it just a shame that You Smash It, We’ll Build Around It isn’t a bit more consistent.

The Outline decide to leave Los Angeles at the peak of high summer to tour the rainy UK for two months. They must mean business.

Los Angeles indie experimentalists The Outline release their debut UK single “Sloppy Drunk” – a tune that thankfully doesn’t live up to its name.
