Garage Pop / Blues rock / Roadhouse. Debt album for Tampa born rocker Benjamin Booker. RIYL: Think Jack White, the Black Keys, and the Alabama shakes, but trashier, a little more punk and solid blues. FCC on 1 and 7. 1. (2:46) **FCC Garagey roadhouse stomp. Driving killer song. 2. (2:20) * Slow, lof-fi distorted intro, picks up into a roadhouse-esque pop rock shuffle. Danceable and fun. 3. (3:14) * Bass heavy strut, roadhouse Stray cats, bluesy organ in background, mellows out at end. 4. (4:32)** Raspy vocals on dreamy ballad, organ, electric guitar, drums, bass 5. (3:28) *Upbeat, heavy drums and guitar, garage pop song 6. (5:08) **Upbeat garage pop song, becomes noisy around 3:20, grungy guitar solo 7. (3:03) * FCC Starts slow and earnest, dramatic, picks up with guitar, organ, and drums. At 2 minutes gets really going. 8. (4:35) *Cool guitar strut, gets a little noisy sometimes. 9. (3:05) *Slow, lethargic, dreamy strumming with raspy vocals. 10. (2:50) *Fast and upbeat, has some very pop elements, driving song 11. (5:35) *Most of the song is down tempo, except for the chorus, which is upbeat and noisy. Good song, similar to others. Get really into a groove by 3:45 12. (3:50) *Begins with raspy slurred vocals over lazy bluesy guitar. Gets loud at end. Picks up, repeating “By the evening, I will be long gone” | ||
