Early support and releases on labels associated with the Paw Tracks scene; recorded extensively on home equipment (8-track/lo-fi) and became noted for reviving and reworking vintage pop and psychedelic textures. Key albums discussed in the reviews: pom pom, Dedicated To Bobby Jameson, and early demo collections such as Haunted Graffiti 5: House Arrest.

Reviews emphasize Ariel Pink's lo-fi, home-recorded aesthetic and his gift for pastiche and nostalgia. Critics celebrate melodic invention within retro textures while noting unevenness in clarity and mainstream appeal. Several reviews highlight Pom Pom and Dedicated To Bobby Jameson as significant recent works. Live shows and early home demos (House Arrest) also feature in the coverage.

For:Fans of lo-fi/indie/psychedelic pop, listeners interested in nostalgic pastiche and DIY home recordings.

 Ariel Pink isn’t retro because he’s trendy, people want quotes from kitsch fairy tales and often it’s no longer even kitsch but post-trash that’s revolting; Maracaibo pre-adolescent nostalgic memories? Terrible!
