1953 is an indie rock album by Soul-Junk released in 1996. The album consists of guitar based low-fi rock, which one reviewer described as being in the ballpark of "Beck meets Danielson."[1] Alternative Press found their musical arrangements to be outstanding, "tuneful, energetic and original",[2] but took fault with their lyrics, which many of which are derived from scripture.[1][2]
