The Lacking Details

High octane fuel for your sonic funnycar, this is a set of guitar driven fuzzy twang, straddling the line between country and rock but doing it sideways and lots of attitude.

What kind of raving madman discotheque is this? I don’t care that the singer yells like a man stuck in a tarpit, I’m staying for the groove.

With Emily Haines’ expressive vocals standing proud and up front, this is a collection of catchy singalong dance rock anthems.

An epic tale set to music, and a whirlwind tour of world musics.

Words like “rollicking”, “thumping”, and “boisterous” apply to this fun mix of blues, boogie, and mystery meats.

The macabre sounds of The Bad Man will appeal to those who like dark carnivals and shadowy ringmasters rasping out bits of polka, sea shanty, ska, and more.

Another all-out rock-and-roll assault from Japan … they never get bored and neither do I.

If you like bands with Brothers in the name, the kind that pluck guitars, plunk banjos, and sing in close harmonies, here’s some more great stuff.

You can call them EFFED UP if you like. A solid and expansive set of music that draws from psychedelia, hardcore, punk, rough-cut ska, and many more.

Strutting around in Seventies duds, these songs get to the heart of the matter in 9 mile-per-gallon, leaded-gas-only style.
