Let’s cut to the chase: ain’t nothin’ sophomoric about the 2nd release from this Portland OR four-piece. Continuing on in the vein from their 1st release w/ indie, rockin’, garagey, rockabilly, surfy, catchy-as-all-get-out tunes, Sallie and gang push even further both musically and lyrically. This is some serious shit!! Play it all. FCC #3, 4, 9, play radio edits #12, 13, 14.
*My Favorites*: All killer!!
1. (3:21) Slow / Mid. Plodding beat, vcl out front. Loud and luscious.
2. (3:46) Mid. Killer drums, catchy as hell, great vcl performance.
3. (2:36) FCC. Play #12 radio edit.
4. (2:57) FCC. Play #13 radio edit.
5. (4:38) Slow / Mid. Trance vibe and vcl, then Sallie’s voice soars. Blissful.
6. (2:19) Mid / Fast. Rockin’ romp, a bit surfy, kick-ass.
7. (3:17) Mid. Easy-going back-porch-ish folky, bluesy, jazzy gem.
8. (3:01) Mid. Fun and upbeat w/ food metaphor lyric. Killer everything.
9. (2:42) FCC. Play #14 radio edit.
10. (2:13) Mid / Fast. Drivin’ psychobillyish surf romp. Ah yes.
11. (3:14) Slow / Mid. Sparse w/ acoustic gtr and vcl. Nice.
12. (2:36) Mid. Rockin’ beat, almost anthemic vibe.
13. (2:57) Mid. Big rockin’ surf vibe, killer vcl and lyrics.
14. (2:42) Mid. Tribal beat w/ psyche-surf gtr, slight vcl echo.
