Album Review
Your Imaginary Friend
Reviewed 2015-04-21
Castle Face/John Dwyer can do no wrong either: more killer fuzzed out garage (Bay Area?). Echoey Sisters of Mercy gothy male vocals, twangy strange guitars, give this a dark 80's sheen, like if Joy Division became a surf punk band. Just what you asked for. Fans of all things related to Thee Oh Sees, Ty Segal, et al. All songs killer.

1) (3:38) chugging beat, head nodding fun
2) (3:24) more upbeat, use of DM-2 Boss delay
3)* (3:03) driving to the point
4) (3:41) halting kinda with more of a 60's pop flare
5)* (3:00) Killer bendy tape treatment at head, upbeat
6) (2:28) upbeat driving dark
7)* (5:39) high energy punky sci fi, midway a breakdown then a slower head nodding dirgey thing takes over til end, excellent
