With the release of their debut album The New Speed in 1998, Portland, Oregon's Sunset Valley emerged from relative obscurity to become one of the most buzzed about new bands of the year. Combining an indie rock ethic with disparate elements of post-punk often likened to the Pixies or Pavement, Sunset Valley arrived with songs about girls, rockets, and space to earn the praise of critics and fans alike. They returned the following year with another set of distinctive, slightly skewed guitar pop numbers entitled Boyscout Superhero, solidifying their reputation. "Today's indie bands are the true rock and roll foot soldiers, clearing the land mines, keeping the dream alive, riding in vans, playing shows for free beer with slightly out of tune guitars," wrote one reviewer for Stinkweeds Online Music.
