The Acid House Kings have always had a rather understated position in the US indie music scene, never receiving the acclaim of groups like Tennis, Best Coast and Camera Obscura — all of whom they inspired. Even after two decades however, the Acid House Kings are still delivering the kind of indie pop that will melt you heart and remind you why the world is a beautiful wonderful glorious place. Their latest video for “Would You Say Stop” off their new album Music Sounds Better With You is fantastic introduction to a group that really should be considered the kings of indie pop.
