Lamprey, the 1995 album from Dutch indie band Bettie Serveert, picks up where Palomine left off. That 1992 debut came from a band named after a book by tennis player Betty Stöve, and The Guardian later hailed it as a peak for guitar rock from Europe at a time when the US and UK dominated. Lamprey keeps the guitars front and center, with Berend Dubbe on drums.

This is indie pop with a rough edge: melodies that drift and then snag, guitars that ring out warm one minute and snarl the next. "Ray Ray Rain" is the standout. Dust Bunnies came next.
