Press Reviews
"With an Athens take on modern fusion pop, local quartet Frocky Jack might pack a heavy punk pedigree, but their sound is built far more out of college rock bricks than three-chord progressions. Assembled on a foundation of chaotic Southern twang butting up against subtle R.E.M.-tinged harmonies, their songs sometimes appear preoccupied in their straightforward rock guitars or their wierd tast in samples, but the occasional dip into Polvo's mathematical grooves keeps things interesting. With this hodge-podge approach, one might assume the results would be fractured at best, but in this case the cracks feel intentional, and the frosting is sweet enough to warrant a second taste."Creative Loafing |
