I Don’t Mind
What’re we gonna say about this platter? The grooves are tight. The riffs are rifftastic. I guess we should expect this from a bunch of Radio Birdmen players who started this side project.
The ridiculous “TV Party” quality of “I Don’t Mind” is an unexpected treat. It’s piffle but it suggests that the entire raison d’être for this project is just to have a good time.
That’s this whole record. Groovy guitar driven rock that is sort of timeless now. This sound pops up via Helllacopters and Station and a host of other bands keeping the rock alive.
With the amount of Down Under rock I’ve been listening to imma take a break from 1981 and cue up some King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard.
