Mor Reviewed 2004-11-22 | ||
One of my favorite indie albums this year! (fact: it was actually released in 2002 and recently re-distributed). These guys, dog bless them, shamelessly rip off the late 60’s psychedelia but also take a lot from 70’s rock and other places. And the good news is: they do it well! Mostly, they do it without sacrificing originality – on the contrary, tracks are interesting and varied, lots of transitions within and between the tracks. Great stuff! The band is from Atlanta (but reminds me of Israel’s Rockfour – check the library – more than anything else). PLAY PLAY PLAY! Favorites: 2, 4, 10, 11, 13, 14 1. Vox a bit iffy, but wild early Floyd feel in the second part. Nice stuff. 2. * Playful riff, carnival feel, gets rocky and then moody, like many Beatles songs in one, great. * 3. Led Zeppelin driving rock, upbeat, great riffs, powerful. 4. * Mid tempo, jangly guitars, vocal (dis)harmonies, becomes bouncy in the middle. * 5. Lead vox, vocal harmonies and strumming alternate with power rock riffs. 6. Quiet strum, mid tempo, becomes fuzzy and louder. 7. Mid/high tempo rocker. 8. Upbeat rock, great guitar. 9. Distortion driven guitar jam intro, almost feels like a live show, steady beat emerges only to shift into mid tempo tune. Then picks up again. 10. * Sweet psychadelic pop, with power chord ripping through acoustic guitar backing. Darker, slower second part, excellent guitars. * 11.* Beatles-inspired, mellow tune. * 12. Psych vocal harmonies, mellow and drony, long intro shift into a power chord mid-tempo tune. 13. * Great straight-up mid tempo rock tune, ripping off some 70s rock.* 14. * Upbeat track with many different parts, fascinating. * |
