Reviewed 2010-01-17
Local psyche/garage rock/pop. Swirling, fuzzy guitars, druggy vocals, Can-like hypnotic drum beats, good stuff! Definitely recommended if you are into the Jesus and Mary Chain, Brian Jonestown Massacre, The Warlocks, Singapore Sling. If you want to dig deeper into some older influences, I think that I can hear a lot of the 13th Floor Elevators and maybe even some space rock in the vein of Loop. Highly recommended!

Picks: 1, 4 ***No FCCs***

**1. Takes a while to start, then builds into this garage psych mini bliss jam. Really sounds like Black Sun by Loop (though poppier).
2. Slower, swampier messier. Loads of reverb. Nice!
3. Epic and swirling. Kinda poppy but in a good way. Dunno why, but it almost reminds me of the Cure...
*4. Again slower, more pensive. Love how the drums just plod on... Really sounds like the Brian Jonestown Massacre.
