what happens when you take a guy from cobra verde, a different guy from witch, some other guy i don't know and throw them in a room with j.mascis? i don't know and that's up to them, but there is this sweet apple record with a roxy music lookin' cover. i'd try to describe all the things that the music reminds me of but it keeps changing every song and i'm having a hard time focusing because my mind and eyes keep drifting to the beautiful dark haired girl on the right side of the cover... it may be a good marketing strategy and make the music better because it keeps me from focusing on the songs too much so i won't notice the things i may actually dislike about it...

buried the image and pulled it from the song tags so it's not on my player for a second go and this album's pretty good... a couple things made me think of foos fighting, trees screaming, whites striping and blues grooving... you can tell j's in the house as always. not my favorite but a really good rock album if that's what they're still called. ok... i guess the genre's post-90s pre-grunge yet recorded later than that reunion rock record from a band that didn't exist before but should've... there's been a lot of bands in that genre lately... i just call it old guys getting together and rockin' out... i hope those aren't their daughters on the cover.
