So Gone
So this is the band that had George W in
its pocket? What? That’s actually a group of zealots who
run the US agenda and don’t believe we’re descended
from monkeys? Wow, have I got to start reading the paper or
what? Now that I listen to it, these don’t sound like
bible thumpers at all. I would even venture that these dudes
smoke some cheeb! It’s not only their psychedelic pastiche
approach to things, but the singer sounds at times to be under
the influence of some sort of mind-altering d-r-u-g-s. It’s
clear that these dudes listened to a lot of Flaming
Lips, but have obviously tried to create their own upbeat,
boppy version of the echoing psych-rock thing. It comes across
feeling like a bit of an experiment, honestly, too disjointed
and buried in reverb to qualify as a success, but not completely
unpleasant. It’s kind of either your thing, or it isn’t. |
