Reviewed 2017-01-09
A mixture of 60s surf rock with elements of garage rock and rock & roll; all brought to you by an electric husband and wife duo. Fuzzed out and bass heavy.
RIYL: Beach Boys, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Soundgarden (tracks 1, 3, 4)
Favorite tracks: 6, 7
FCC: track 9
1. (4:12) Out of the Blue – grunge-y foreboding surf rock, reverb
2. (3:25) Skinny Dippin’ – upbeat tune with playful lyrics
3. (4:11) Love Howl – crunchy guitars, steady foot-stomping beat
4. (4:51) Big Wooly – a little heavier
5. (4:27) Cool Clear Water – twangy 70s rock sprinkled throughout
*6. (4:41) Ride the Tide – fun riff motif, road trippin’ vibes
*7. (4:59) Tsunami – mellowed out, desert mystical
8. (4:02) She Is Gone Again – eerie vocal harmonies and a dark western feel
9. (4:24) Rolling in the Moonshine – FCC: 2:41 (f*ck) melancholy Beach Boys
10. (2:58) Weekend Mohawk – melancholy Beach Boys pt. II, with a slow + steady hand-clapping beat
