The Knight Shades Why (Baby Why!) / Make You Mine 7″
Only two songs? Bummer! This is, without a doubt, the best garage rock/punk I’ve heard this year. It’s got loads of energy and swagger, and somehow manages to breathe some life into a genre that often feels tired and repetitive. It’s polished and raw at the same time, and I love the JAMES BROWN-esque yelps delivered several times a song. I bet these songs would rip live, and I imagine it would be the kind of show where you’re soaked in beer and exhausted from dancing your lil’ ass off. Gimme more.
