"With
Righteous Signals, Sour Dudes
, Joe and Lachlann have written a new album which leaps and bounds over their debut
Musclemilk
, released in 2007 by Adaadat. The dual title is symbolic of the struggle for creative compromise and two pals who are still learning how to work together -- they couldn't agree, so they named it twice -- it works out. Similarly, the music clashes, too, it strikes bargains and agrees to disagree. The album finds progressive rock trying to sit alongside synth-pop and Afrobeat, whilst disco bumps into hardcore, before transcending tropically. There's a lot going on but somehow it makes sense. Album opener 'Cruisin' is a reckless, careering 8-bit punk sideswipe, with hollered words and an ardent keyboard line. 'Geomancer' is a bubbling brew of stammering beats and coupled vocals. 'Stranded In Jurassic Park' tells the tale of buddies chased by dinosaurs into the path of five desert dwelling aggressors over a pulsating call and response track, which shape shifts with every line. The band try their hand at epic balladry with 'Glorious Dawn2,' whilst 'Magic Eye' is a breakneck pop song lost amidst the pogo and guitar wrangle.
Righteous Signals, Sour Dudes
is an album about unsatisfactory magic, testing friendships and Niels Bohr. It is also a record about forgetting boundaries and forgiving fun." On bubblegum-colored vinyl; includes poster and lyric insert.
