Curiously, only two exceptions to the rule of today (70s rock) – the first would be the track by the Norwegian band Flunk from their 2007 LP Personal Stereo. But the Flunk track fits super well, sounding like a cross between Pink Floyd ‘Breathe’ and Crazy Horse. The second exception is a 1985 track by The Deadbeats from their On Tar Beach LP. It too fits in very well, reminding me of The Motels ‘Only The Lonely.’ The rest of the tracks inhabit their own sound, but slide in to a cohesive set that I think you will love.
