Blues Control - Local Flavor

2009 release from the New York-based Noise Rock duo. The opening track "Good Morning" is practically a sideways step into Boogie Rock (horn accompaniment provided by none other than Jesse Trbovich and Kurt Vile); with the proper seismic shift, it could almost be heard as an alternate reality take on 'Re-make/Re-model.' It's easily the band's longest stomp in the forest of Rock since their debut cassette, and, man, them boots leave a bruise! The remaining three tracks morph and ebb harmoniously-in true Blues Control fashion-the timbre occasionally elegiac, yet more often riffing on a plane that has yet to be transcribed. Local Flavor provides an unimaginable future that will take your breath away. So make sure you've paid your oxygen bill, because there are no free rides in the 82nd Century.
