What can I say about Frog Eyes, I discovered them at KZSU and I have been hooked on them ever since. They are one of the most demented and unique bands I have EVER heard. Think David Bowe on and enormous amount of Mushrooms, then drink 2 forty’s and smoke a joint and you’ll be in the mindset. Twisted Carnival Cabaret chaos. Lots of Keys and twangy guitars, but its all about Carey Mercer’s fucked up dramatic vocals and stories. This record touches me in an icky place, but I like it daddy. See cover for more detail. PLAY IT –the bAWd of eUPHONY
1**(1:38) Mid open groove drinking chant with siren Squeals.
2*(1:48) Slower with paced drums and keys and harp?
3**(1:10) Fucking rocking riff and groove. Dance baby (FCC)
4* (2:27) Acoustic, upbeat and distant.
5**(3:01) One of my favorites. Slow and melodic. Great weaving guitar over organ (FCC)
6*(1:19) Dancy song, fucking cool and upbeat
7 (3:10) distant and Simple. Cool
8 (2:28) Upbeat and keys driven.
9 (2:00) slow and sad
10** (3:22) Awesome song, slow builds and intense. (FCC)
11**(5:42) Another Favorite. Dubbed out vox. Slow and evil stomp sound with great sonic youth ending.
12* (2:20) Shimmer Guitars and humming keys. Whispered Vox. Very gentle but still intense.
13* (3:54) Crazy Cabaret swing.
