Two of the four tunes are too far on the pop ballad side for me, but the cover of LOVE’s “7+7 Is” is decent (a bit too clean), as is the atmospheric but rockin’ “13th Floor.” From Australia.
Quite a turnaround from this band’s earlier flaccid release. Don’t be fooled by the rockabilly image of the cover or title; this baby’s got some classic Australian R’n’R, containing elements of ’60s punk, BIRTHDAY PARTY, RADIO BIRDMAN, etc. Rocks out, and comes with a free 12″. Cool, and right up there with the NOMADS. Coming out soon in the US on Sounds Good.
