This album is pretty wild. It's like a soulful rockabilly romp through the head of Dick Dale if Dick Dale was really into Screamin' Jay Hawkins and Screamin' Jay was really into hip hop and creepy as funk. That's a mouthful but that's what it sounds like.

Every song pretty much includes a new genre of music but it all has this kind of spooky Halloween gonzo like acid trip feel. It's hard to describe. They're from Brooklyn which scores major points with me. I'll have to see if they're playing any time soon because they sound like they'd be a riot.

Look at the band lineup...

Godforbid - vocals, songwriter
Jeremy Page - guitar, bass, keyboard, banjo, pedal steel, glockenspiel, percussion, accordion, synthesizer, kazoo, background vocals, songwriter
Naoko Takamoto - backing vocals
Evan Sanders - keyboard, trumpet, trombone
Jeremy Siegel - bass, background vocals
Sam Merrick - drums
Deflon Sallahr - live show hype man
Andy Bauer - drums, percussion, accordion, guitar, backing vocals

LIVE SHOW HYPE MAN. That's awesome. I'm going to try to see these guys.

This one is staying in the saved section.
