ARK Identity - Deluxe Nightmare

On his latest EP, Deluxe Nightmare, Toronto’s Ark Identity (Noah Mroueh) lays out six lush dream-pop soundscapes, but with elements of everything from alt rock and psychedelia to the grungy rock of the title track (strangely reminiscent of Nirvana if they were more of a dream-pop band).  Although there isn't a bad track here, some of the high points include the hypnotic “Still In Love,” which has a bit of a Squeeze feel, the delicate at times “I’m Still the Same,” with its gentle piano accompaniment, and “Can’t Stop Loving You.”
