A treat to wake up on a Friday morning to a new Lemonheads album Love Chant with a child's scrawl cover and eleven songs and thirty six minutes of Lemonhead songs that coudn't be anything else. Bytda, meet Gram meet Big Star slacker mindset meet folk in their sixties.
Evan Dando's voice has deepened through almost forty years of neglect and abuse. He now has cellphone blues as well as brass buttons. But his songwriting class has dimmed little and his aim on everything here is true,
He still has the ability to make you think hos songs aren't altogether finished and that's exactly as it should be. All you can want in life is an unmistakable voice and a good heart. Such is the case here. A good start to the day.
