Album Review

KZSU has received a lot of this lately: garage-punk, garage rock, whatever you wanna call it. This CD is definitely nice though. The music comes off as pretty sincere; it’s not overproduced or calculated. There are some nice fake British vocals and the requisite B-3 that pop up and make the album a bit endearing. Definite Kinks influence in there somewhere. All are great.

1 Like a British-sounding New York Dolls.
2 Catchy, upbeat, and sweet.
3 Jumpy love song.
4 Nice guitar jam, but it gets difficult to make out the singing.
5 Stuttery, jumpy rock ‘n’ roll.
6 Has a dirty Clash feel.
7 Upbeat walk on the street sound.
8 Very sloppy guitar-driven song.
9 A lot like number 2.
10 Total Iggy and the Stooges thing going.
