At long last, Lowell MA psych-trash-rockers Squash are coming to vinyl. This pairing of 2021's Whatever It's Like Is That's What's Happening and 2023's Where Did I Go? EP finally gives fans of the chance to own a physical piece of their particular brand of sonic onslaught. Aside from the fact that they were undoubtedly created by the same band, these releases provide the perfect companion pieces to one another. Whatever It's Like is a richly crafted aural experience, awash with meticulous overdubs creating enveloping sonic textures that wrap your brain in a fuzzy blanket of sound. On the other hand, the Where Did I Go? EP demonstrates a loose, raw sound more reminiscent of the band's chaotic live performances and is the perfect follow-up. Raunchy riffs, wandering guitar lines and warbly howling vocals, this has got it all. RIYL: Grateful Dead, Fugazi, Smashing Pumpkins, Pavement, Built to Spill, Nirvana, The Gerbils.
