When a scrawled-on free-of-charge CD-R enclosed in a paper sleeve comes into my possession upon leaving a VFW show, it often comes with some degree of intrigue, but expectations admittedly can be on the lower side -- hence my surprise at this punchy-n-versatile 5-track not-quite-full-length. Noisy alt-melodics are never not a full-team effort, slight-but-oft off-kilterness is well-conducted while evading superfluous diversions, guitars that twist-n-turn and spray psychedelic flourishes turn longingly pretty and sparkling with ease. And they don't skimp when it comes to detouring down archetypal avenues: soft jazzy breakdown interrupting ferocity, animal-rights-speech sample submerged in cacophony, extended beach-wave ambiance finale following jam-out. I've certainly been handed much worse.
