Album Review
Your Imaginary Friend
Reviewed 2014-04-15
From Melbourne (via Mexico?): Driving garage punk “like Birthday Party crossed with Dead Kennedys”. For fans of Guitar Wolf, Agent Orange, Jody Fosters Army, TSOL, Shattered Faith, All things Estrus Records, Melvins weirdness. Like Thee Oh Sees on Crystal Meth. Most songs sung in Spanish; I can’t tell if they have a connection to Mexico/Spain anywhere on the web, but I suspect so (despite being from Australia).

1) (2:51) driving rockin’ garage, four barrel peel out
2) (2:33) rockin’ again with Romantics’esque background “ahhhs”, great lyrics about shoplifting
3) (2:22) surfy spooky munsters tone to the driving
4) (3:55) sung en espanol, bordering on hardcore punk in urgency and tone, with slow middle part
5) (3:53) anthemic triplet rock
6) (2:02) a slight spaghetti western tone to therockin, sung en espanol
7) (6:45) starts with feedback and evil surf, en Espanol, epic rockin jam that sees a trumpet near end
8) (2:42) starts with sample from old scary movie, full on LA punk riff with breakdowns and suffering sounds, en espanol
9) (2:08) gotta have a song about Chupacabra: bouncier feel, fun party music (almost)
10) (3:44) smarmy hip grinding evil surf, lots of screaming and howling, lo mejor!
