Sadie O. Reviewed 2005-08-22 | ||
Sonic Love Affair – SLA (Dollar Record Records) Reviewed by Sadie O., 8/20/05 Local garage band, somewhat 60’s influenced. Think Blues Magoos or the Stooges, not Beatles. Rather sloppy playing and crappy vocals, like garage bands are supposed to have. Pretty much all tracks uptempo, hard rock, simple musical form, two guitars, bass, drum, male vocal with fake Detroit accent. Mostly all sounds the same, frankly, so it doesn’t matter too much which you choose. Which is not to say it sounds BAD, just no variety to speak of. This CD makes a loud hum in my computer CD drive – suggest you check to make sure it doesn’t do so on the air! FCCs on track 4 and 10, per label. Best tracks probably 1, 7, 12 and 5. 1. ** Straightforward garage rock, somewhat interesting subject matter. 2. Much the same sound, song of frustration with his “Little Girl”, picks up tempo even more towards the end. 3. Same sound and pretty much the same subject as the last one. Feedback at end. 4. FCCs, which is a bit of a shame, as it’s mildly musically diverting with a perty good guitar solo for the genre. 5. * Something about “Radio waves”, interesting ending. 6. Kinda whiny lyrics and not entirely successful drumming. 7. **All about living in a crappy neighborhood – not bad stuff. 8. Oh, the teen angst of it all… 9. Tempo changes! Other than that, pretty much the same stuff. 10. “Mother fucker” near end. Again, not a bad song otherwise. 11. Pointless cover of a song that’s been done well many times. 12. **VERY garage-y. Punky subject. |
