'Hey Baby , I like your lips...'
Almost ten years ago. It feels like a different lifetime. Life is like that. Anyhow, 2016. I got heavily into Sunflower Bean for a couple of seasons. Saw them playing a small club nearby to me and listened to their debut album Human Ceremony. A lot !
Ten years later Sunflower Bean are on the circuit. Still the same line up . A threepiece. A Grunge drummer. Some distant nephew of Dave Grohl. A guitarist with a Dylan Wild Mercury Sound rug cut. A glam punky lady in fishnets taking most of the vocal duties. A not disimilar sound. Perhaps a bit more mainstream. Less Sonic Youth. Closer to a fuzzy Fleetwood Mac. Everyone seems to move a bit Fleetwood Mac with time.It's the Millennial Shift.
New album Mortal Primetime is decorative. Without being startling, in the way Human Ceremony seemed to me at the time. It's often the way. We grow up and that means the tug of the suburbs. I give this 7.8. Hey... Pitchfork !!!
