The DeBaser review discusses the debut A Certain Smile, a Certain Sadness as eight Polaroid snapshots from 1996 and describes the band's sound as dreamy, twee and indebted to 1990s Slumberland-style indie.

A DeBaser review celebrates Rocketship's debut A Certain Smile, a Certain Sadness as a dreamy, pastel-sepia take on 90s indie and twee pop. The writing highlights Stereolab-like organs, twee melodies between Beat Happening and the Gerbils, and a bittersweet, nostalgic mood. Overall the review is admiring and rated 5/5.

For:Fans of 90s indie, twee pop, dreampop and Slumberland-style bands

 At the core, pronounced the Italian or the Anglo-Saxon way: we are very close to the core of Slumberland and the nineties, those of indie groups that were too far from the fuzz walls to be shoegaze and pose, perhaps not experimental enough, yet too sly and beyond everything else to land even one track in rotation and be remembered.
