A really amazing cake- covered in fruits and and sugars….made of brick
A fantastic dress of satin and sparkle……lined in barbed wire
A gorgeous English villa with ivy and lavender……and rotted floor boards.
What am I on about??
The Fumes.
Dear Fumes…what the heck are you doing?
Today totally stoked I plop down the disc hit it to high and zam.. I’m shoes off dancing right there in the middle of the office. “Halleluiah’! A kick ass band with amazing tone and music you cannot sit still with..yessssssssssssss!!
1- Fat.. fantastic
2- Who Do you Love….killlahhh
Then everything went dark. Um….. Did they run out of steam? Did the entire world tip over? Did someone switch tapes? What the heck tracks 3-4-5-6-7….. Now I’m furious.
How dare you deceive me with mad dance openers only to tank like a lead balloon?
Suddenly I wish this was an EP. I wanted to love these guys I really did.. I did for 2 songs…..
Then Psychedelic Warlord.. k wait .. I do love them! This song again has me up moving and stoked.. it was just a bad middle right? 10, Rogue River Woman.. teeters on horrible.. never quite moving over the line. The vocal pitch saves it, kinda. Not really. Bar band sounding. Do I really need a roller coaster? Look be great or be horrible none of this wide fluctuating between sucking like nothing has sucked before to being the most awesometastic find of the year…..
11- Sundance? Get me a gun. I’m taking myself out. 12- Seven Year Itch.- Am I being punked?
Can it possibly be the same band?
Which leads me to the conclusion that generally speaking I purchase a cd and hate 2 or 3 songs, and love the rest.
Seems this one is in reverse.
I LOVE 3 of 12.
You do the math.
Now I have the Australian Blues.. Going back to track one but stopping before 3 this time….I love FF
