NEW MUSIC REVIEW: MODEY LEMON Season Of Sweets CD

MODEY LEMON / Season Of Sweets CD / Birdman Records / 2008

I know it’s not technically a new release, but it’s a notable one. A bit of STOOGES, some CAPTAIN BEEFHEART, some SAINTS, and even a little LOOP here and there makes for a band worth checking out in my book. They’ve been rocking Pittsburgh to the ground for over a decade, and one of the songs on this album is in a Tony Hawk video game, so what are you waiting for?

SOUNDS LIKE:
BLUES EXPLOSION, WARLOCKS, VON BONDIES

SUGGESTED TRACKS:
“The Peacock’s Eye” (an early MAGIC BAND-esque groove), “It Made You Dumb” (shades of STRANGLERS), “Milk Moustache” (MUDHONEY would be jealous)
