TURPENTINE BROTHERS: Self-titled: LP

Oct 06, 2008

Now this is the kind of band that makes one excited about music. Garage rock done right. Raw, rocking attitude, and all with a swinging rhythm. The organ that runs throughout is great. Not overbearing, but essential. Giving this an air of cool that can not be faked. The whole time I listened to this record—and repeated listens at that—all I could say to myself, wide-eyed, is, “Fuck, this is great!!” And great this record truly is. You get your rippers, some in between, and some slow stuff (“Tired Luxury”). Great album the whole way through. You really have to hear “Time/Min” and “Forget Loyalty.” Great songs!
