Veteran SF indie rock outfit returns with a sumptuous set of spiritual pop hymnals, in the tradition of George Harrison, Richard Hawley, Spiritualized, and Gene Clark. Painstakingly assembled from over two years’ worth of recording sessions and augmented by a heavenly host of horns, strings, analog keys, chiming guitars and a makeshift choir.
Past press
Pitchfork - Babcock’s best compositions blur the lines between many strains of 1960s and 70s pop and exotica, coming together on albums that sound like either an alternate version of the past, or an older version of the future.
Shindig - Unearthed is the seventh Rockets album, a sonic continuation of 2016’s Family Ways, for the most part mixing city-centric country-rock with Pavement-esque indie.
Americana UK - For over twenty years, San Francisco’s Society of Rockets have been on a musical journey through a range of genres, exploring an eclectic mix of styles and proving themselves to be incredibly adaptable. Their songs may be varied but they have in common catchy hooks and absorbing, shimmering melodies.
We would like to thank our Kickstarter backers for making the vinyl edition a reality!
