Why have I never heard these guys? Slacker country, sounds dope. Cue rabid downloading of everything they've done.
Bedhead - Haywire: 7/10
Not bad at all, got major Spacemen 3 vibes. I've seen the album floating around the forum quite a bit recently, should probably give it a chance soon. It's quite interesting to hear that shoegaze wall-of-sound thing done with literally no attempt to make it pretty. The default position seems to be to turn it into something dreamy and ethereal, but here they're content to keep it uglyish. Interesting.
sorry. ended up sinking into the crack in my couch with all the lint and pocket change. Pretty wonderful slice of laconic mumbling, dream pop. 8.5/10 (Bedhead)
Above & Beyond - You Got To Go (Acoustic Version): 6/10
A little meandering for me at the start, not to mention just a bit too clean. However, it picks up as it goes on, and I really like the horns towards the end, and I'm a sucker for that warm electric keyboard sound. Not sure I actually like the song itself, but I do like the sounds it incorporates in the latter half. A low 6/10.
Dead Moon - Walking On My Grave: 5/10
Ragged, punky garage rock by numbers. Not bad by any means, but just a bit too similar to too many other things.
Chinchilla - This Town Needs Guns: 4/10
I can't stand the vocals, and I'm not really sure the world needs a take on mathy post-hardcore that's quite this inoffensive.
I've already offered a couple so I'll leave it for now, but I'll be returning here to rate songs as they pop up. It's already convinced me to check out two bands further, so I could see this being a success. _________________ 2021 in full effect. Come drop me some recs. Y'all know what I like.
