Come and join Area Resident for a rock excursion as the new record Protanopia is released everywhere and has a wonderfully toned cross of folk and indie rock sounds.
The full album dips into a variety of rock styles and has a vivacious set of twists and tastes of psych-rock.
"Fentanyl Car" is among the best songs on the release but that is just our opinion.
The album consists of 9 songs, each with something slightly new but with all with a glue that holds it together nicely.
Other notable singles include: "Filthy Bodies" and "Abductor Sound".
The whole record is worth a listen.

Area Resident typically turns out an album a year.With a series of albums, EP's and singles released, Area Resident has been pushing boundaries for years and creating addictive soundscapes without limit.
