Garage-rock from Athens with alt-country and indie rock flavors; I'd say Calexico, Pavement, Meat Puppets all get invoked. Gruff male vocals, gritty guitars, and occasional horns are arranged well across an impressive dynamic and stylistic spread. A few action-soundtrack-worthy instrumentals are the highlights, but the rest is also solid. Start with 7 and 3 or, if you want vocals, 9 and 1. FCC safe. –Andy *1 - (2:40) midtempo, dynamic growler with a southwestern shuffle 2 - (3:13) slower, sunny alt-country wanderer **3 - (1:17) instrumental; great combo of bouncing country guitar and mariachi horns 4 - (2:47) indie pop; long looped string part to end 5 - (2:35) driving, single-lyric garage rock; slows to half tempo 6 - (4:26) Pavement-derivative slow-mellow indie rock waltz **7 - (2:15) badass rock instrumental; aggressive surly guitar and big horns *8 - (2:50) gentle but substantial indie rock with harmonized buildups *9 - (3:47) super-mellow bookends around slow rock instrumental 10 - (2:04) dynamic guitar-centric instrumental 11 - (2:36) repetitive southwest-indie-rock with a punch 12 - (3:13) nervous alt-country-rock stomp *13 - (4:52) slow folky dirge; Decemberists with rougher guitar | ||
