No Vacation’s ‘Lovefool’ Is Cozy Surf Pop Loveliness [Stream]

Sip on a hot beverage of choice and listen to No Vacation’s “Lovefool.” Driven by immediate surf pop, “Lovefool” establishes a seamless sense of repose through its gorgeously entrancing guitar riff repetition. Dreamy guitar notes mesh into hypnotic vocal harmonies and hazy bedroom pop melodies will make you swoon. No Vacation’s two-piece duo ­– comprised of Sabrina Mai and Basil Saleh – bring vocals that are equally gentle and hug eardrums with soft and mellowed mutters.

Lyrically, “Lovefool” will tug at emotions with its chorus: “guess I was a fool for believing you / the truth hurts more than a lie or two.” Matched by a thick underlying bass line and a modest drumbeat that feed the song in a perfectly unassertive way, “Lovefool” is one of many gorgeous tracks on mixtape Amo XO – available on bandcamp.
