Quick and Easy Album Reviews
We used to bring tons of music goodies to Chicago. No doubt it was how our bread was buttered so to speak. Now we're a tad more diverse, but we recently listened to 3 new albums and decided to pass on our thoughts.
Gringo Star - Like fellow HotLanta band Black Lips, GS is psych-garage but they mix in a little more experimental elements. Would love to see if they can put the cohesiveness of this album, Count Yer Lucky Stars, together in the live setting. They are coming to Chicago soon at the SubT.
Russian Circles - Fans of this blog know we love RC. The Chi-City power post-rock band delivers another mighty, mesmerizing fourth record with Empros.
Pyyramids - Facebook post leads us to this video from Pyyramids (nice song, cool(ish) video), which in turns perks interest in new EP Human Beings. One dude from OK GO and a lo-fi Santigold-style sound. Diggin it.
