The Cincinnati band is back with another album. Spacey, indie, post-punk with twisted lyrics a la Dick Panthers. Fairly straight-forward instrumentation of guitar, bass, drums. No FCC’s.
*My Favorites*: 1, 2, 3, 6.
1. *(4:38) Mid. Spacey, trippy, echoey. Crunchy elec. guitar comes in about 1:15. Vocals about 2:00. Weirded out female backing vocals, almost a soundtrack parody.
2. *(4:54) Mid / Fast. Female lead vocals. More crunchy guitar work. Spacey. Bizarre lyrics. Kicks ass.
3. *(5:40) Mid. Spacey, jammy, stretched out post-punk. A bit Dick Panthers / Nick Cave.
4. (4:37) Mid / Fast. Mostly a guitar, drum and bass workout with minimal lyrics. Pretty rockin’.
5. (5:13) Slow / Mid. Xylophone, Neil Young mention. Although there’s lyrics, it feels mostly instrumental.
6. *(5:12) Mid / Fast. Guitar intro, pretty kick ass opening then high-pitched female vocal enters. Trippy guitar effects. More weird lyrics. Don’t be surprised if this gets a play from Your Imaginary Friend.
7. (4:55) Fast. Surf sound, female chanting, otherwise an instrumental. More guitar effects. Rockin’. Coda with 1:30 remaining.
