Album Review

Reviewed 2017-02-06
INDIE ROCKY, DANCEY, FUNKY, LOCAL. A member of this resurrection of former Bay Area group Shimmer Kids Underpop Association hand-delivered this 2014 release. Unconventional songwriting shatters the verse chorus verse chorus routine. Side B is SO GOOD. No full instrumentals. No FCC issues.

A
1. (4:14) **** Casually happy, care-free.
2. (3:46) *** Briefly samples “Up on Cripple Creek” by The Band. Ethereal groove.
3. (3:35)**** Long funky instrumental intro. Catchy groove and vocals.
4. (2:47) ***** Slow, funky walk. Almost ska. Fun chorus.
5. (3:42) *** Casual 80s disco groove with transition to trippy world vibe.
B
1. (3:30) ***** Egregious synth, excellent bass line, extraordinary vocals. Jammy breakdown.
2. (3:14) ***** Lazy, beachy groove. Electric guitar cries out for the chorus.
3. (3:11) ***** Slow, swung, beautiful and short.
4. (4:14) **** Mariachi effect, spacey wah-wah guitar, last couple minutes instrumental jamming.
