Rippin’ Nashville garage rock from Burger Records. Punky, proggy at times, and admittedly…”pretty groovy.” The kinda band that would play a house show you weren’t cool enough to get invited to. RIYL: The Damned, White Fence, King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard, Triptides, Natural Child, Thee Oh Sees FCC on 3,6. Try: 7, 4, 3, 2

1. Slow strummy intro, transitions into a mellow rocker with a bit of a twang
*2. Shrill noisy guitars, repetitive spoken/sung lyrics that “stress kills”
*3. (FCC) Frantic, punky, great guitarwork
*4. Bouncy bass-driven garage rock with lots of attitude
5. Prog-rock instrumental
6. (FCC) Snarled vocals, heavy guitars, punk aesthetic
*7. Groovy with deadpan vocals. Peppy percussion and great guitar interplay
8. Long intro with grainy, crunchy percussion. Guitar washes slowly build up into thick sludgy drone-rock
9. Psychedelic funky instrumental
10. Bouncy and jammy with spoken-word style vocals. Tempo picks up halfway through. Cool distorted guitar solo
