Shot Down

VINYL FORMAT. This Bloomington, IN trio took just about everybody by surprise with their LP released earlier this year on Family Vineyard; a full-tilt, f'ed-up, psyched-out boogie-fied garage stomper filtered through the musical ghosts of bands both past and present, and we here at TiM HQ are pleased as punch to be releasing this two-song rager hot on the heels of that debut thrill-ride! "Shot Down" is a mutant Troggs stomp soaked in the sweat of John Lee Hooker and bops along like the bastard child of the Ohio Express and Sun Ra. The flipside - "Sister Burnout" is a barn-burning head-banger that ratchets up the intensity and sounds like an amphetamine-fueled sword fight between The Shadows Of Knight and The Deviants, with singer/guitarist Sonny Alexander testifying like a tweaked out Richard Hell. This is full-on sanctified-psych - drop the needle on the wax and become a believer!
