we'll go machete - self-titled ep


released 2009

this foursome out of austin,tx warm the cockles of my heart...taking me back to a more simple time of driving aimlessly with a car full of friends while listening to mix tapes that you put together...and looking around and seeing only looks of confusion on the faces of everyone because apparently what was playing wasn't hard enough or didn't make any sense to them

aka "the 90s" (well...for me anyway)

it's stuff like this that makes me think that there's a possible tidal wave of new old "college rock" getting ready to make landfall...and it couldn't come at a better time...i mean...the jesus lizard are wandering the landscape again...faith no more are at it again...or maybe the apocalypse is upon us

who knows

and now there's this band...taking their name from a lester bangs quote...giving us something that sounds like a mixture of snapcase...fugazi...drive like jehu...quicksand...and a kinder,gentler helmet

so do yourself a favor...get in the way back machine...and take this for a drive
