Press Reviews
"Holy Shit. Bassist Gabe Lowenberg (Americar Underworld, Suspended) passed me this disc at The Washdown's recent New World Brewery show, and to be honest, I feared songless, overly arty bullshit. Instead I was treated to perhaps the most deftly balanced combination of indie-rock aesthetic, iconoclastic lyrics, and insurgent country-esque reverence to traditional song structure I've ever heard from a West Central Florida outfit. This new outft puts familiar parts together to create a whole that's impossible to describe aptly, so I'll lapse into Jeff Goldblume style staccato free association (you'll have to envision the manic hand gestures for yourself) "Guitars. Uh ... twang, but balls. Familiar, uh, but so new, Spartan and casual, yet epic. Er, warm, clever, funny, and honest without being, uh, clever. (Big smile and, finally, mirthful meaningful giant-eye contact) I guess I'd call it fresh and melodic but, uh, at the same time, well..... there you go". What else is there? It sounds like a lot of stuff, yet completely original, and the rough-hewn production fits perfectly. Hunt and haunt this band relentlessly, and expect gargantuan things. Wow."
