Going Grey by The Front Bottoms
Going Grey by The Front Bottoms
2017 | Alternative, Indie
Their plucky DIY aesthetic may be all but gone at this point, but the Front Bottoms have transitioned to the majors gracefully. Certain synth melodies might be a tad too sugary for some, but they bolster the top-notch songwriting
Critic- Luke Pearson
Original Score: 8 out of 10

"This is referenced in my song 'I'm An Outlaw': "...an outlaw, burned from vinyl, dimed from cans, peaked to the dome". And that's some crazy, psychedelic, synth-y, weird funk. No offence to Miles, you know, unfortunately he's not with us, but fortunately he's not, because he's the weakest link on that record. At first he's awesome, and then some of his tone, it goes down south once in a while, but all the players, like John McLaughlin and the synth players, and if you listen to the record, especially in headphones, it's all - my theory is - going through modular synthesisers, all the percussion is going through envelope filters, but it's also panning non-stop. If you listen, it's unreal. If you crank it in headphones, it's full speed ahead!"

Woah
Wow, I do not regret pre-ordering this absolute gem. This is by far, one of his best albums, in my opinion, Lots of people believe that things couldn't get better than 2 or Salad Days, but I'm not sure. It feels like the whole Arctic Monkeys debate.

This really gives me lucid Beatles and soul train vibes while still retaining that classic Mac synth sound.
