Snakadaktal formed in Melbourne in 2009, a five-piece who made dreamy, hazy indie pop that felt like it was drifting in from somewhere just over the horizon. Sean Heathcliff and Phoebe Go shared the vocals and the synthesizers, with Joseph Clough on guitar, Jarrah Mccarty-Smith on bass and Barna Nemeth on drums.
"Air", from their self-titled 2011 EP, is the standout: gauzy guitars, soft boy-girl vocals and a slow build that never quite breaks, pop made for staring out of train windows. "Dance Bear" followed in 2012. They called it quits on 16 March 2014, leaving behind a small, pretty catalog that sounds like the end of a long summer.
