Dial Direct
Genre: Power Pop/Rock
2.5 out of 5
I have no space left in my dropbox or any place to host this so, if you want it you have to go to Wilfully Obscure to grab it.
But, to be honest, it sounds a lot like I do right now. See, I decided to learn how to play Blues scales for the first time. So, all my lead lines sound like someone who…just learned blues scales. And that’s what this is here. Somewhere between Power Pop and Straight Rock by a bunch of kids who are just figuring it out. And their songs just ain’t that good.
I could go on about the tepid New Wave of “Commie Love-Cockroach” but, damn, it’s just like what a high school band that wanted to try their hand at New Wave would sound like. With Saxophones!!
