From Sweden. Swamp psychedelic blues of Gris Gris or Gun Club, dirt of early Jeff The Brotherhood, great garage surf of The Vulcaneers, but mostly the unrepentant punk psych throwback garage of bands who channel 13th Floor Elevators. Not to be confused with, but definitely to be played with, Athens Greece psych garage band Acid Baby Jesus. Play also with current ripe psych crop of The Routes, Gutar Kyo, Evel and Trashbones, The Monsieurs, et al.(anything Dirty Water or Slovenly Records). Many songs have studio sounds in intro-outro giving them an even more raw sound.
1)* (4:10) epic bouncy driving pogo’ing raw garage, killer efx panning 2) (2:31) strummy psych garage feel, fuzzy vocs, echoey 3)* (3:55) bluesy swing to this a la Gris Gris, dirty organ brings in 60’s punk garage 4) (3:44) swingy bouncy, grows meaner as it goes on 5) (3:08) slower big twangy, epic 6) (4:27) exotica flare, echoey sexy, whistling/guitar hook is like a twist on Low Rider melody, mellow 7)* (3:04) churchy organ with full on surf fun! 8) (3:18) slow ballady 9) (3:37) country bluesy slow swing to this 10) (3:20) mid-slow shoo bop, cleaner, seventh chords and classic progressions 11)* (1:49) upbeat swinging fun, hoo boy! 12) (1:42) strange sounds in intro, then upbeat fun tambourine backbeat strummy fun 13) (2:30) Surfs Up! 14)* (2:58) more surfin’! With some cool melodic hooks
