The Higher State Internecine Free LP

Self-described “authentic ’60s garage punk” from the UK. Twelve fuzzy songs, riddled with bass leads and Farfisa organ stabs, but where’s the punk? While the band manages to capture the saccharine sounds of the late ’60s, they fail to capture any ferocity or attitude. Simply put, they excel at crafting and performing psychedelic garage rock that doesn’t actually rock.
