Dear Mr. Buckingham
This is exactly what my fake band in college, The Yeast Infection’s follow up band should have sounded like.
It was a lark and I was barely involved.
The drums could be the same ones I bashed in our dorm room, a metal trash can.
The difference between MOTO and The Public Hares is they listened to a LOT more Rolling Stones records.
And took a lot of acid and then decided they loved Blotto and The Beach Boys.
This low fi sound will be part of one of my favorite records of the aughts by Crocodiles. But also by The Drums.
The cover looks like the logo for Jolt cola and there’s a good reason. This is audible Jolt cola.
Oh. And it’s all one guy.
I think I love MOTO.
How much did future punk rockers like Green Day owe Paul Caporino?
These were random, disconnected notes I jotted down as I listened to this over the past few days, so I apologize that it isn’t better worded.
