Th' Losin Streaks - Sounds Of Violence (2004)

Sigamos otro rato por el mundo del Garage. Grupo de Sacramento, California, que publicaron este su primer disco en el 2004, aunque ya llevaban bastante tiempo tocando en distintas bandas de la zona, como The Trouble Makers, Groovie Ghoulies, Schruggs..... Puede que no aportasen nada nuevo, garage tocado con energía sonando a Sonics, alguna versión.... pero que si me aportaron la alegría de escucharlos, de eso se trata. Si yo fuese mod, me gustarían, je.

Th' Losin Streaks are Matt, Stan, Mike and Tim. Tim sings, plays guitar and writes some of the songs. Stan plays the bass, sings backups and dances. Matt is the beat of the traps and also sings. Mike sings, plays better guitar, dances better, and writes some songs. Th' group formed in the summer of 2003 as a three piece-- Mike came along in September.
Between them the fellows have over forty years' experience playing what they call music.

The Resonars - Lunar Kit (2002)

Primera colaboración del amigo jllopez o JAM ,que son sus iniciales, un pequeño paréntesis para el garaje.

Grupo de Tucson (Arizona) formado en los 90's en el revival garage, The Resonars es Matt Rendon, que toca todos los instrumentos y escribe todos los temas del "grupo". Pop psicodélico con toques Byrds, Hollies y trallazos The Who.
Este es su tercer disco y para mi todo un descubrimiento.

The Resonars Lunar Kit's self-titled full-length is the type of record you hear on CD and want to get on vinyl. It's warm grooves and hip-shaking rhythms recall the old rock 'n' roll records you grew up on, as much about fun and dancing as it is about writing and performing great songs. It's the type of record you put on your turntable, blast into your ears via the headphones, and dance the night away while the party goes strong into the wee hours of the morning. However, on CD all is not lost because it is such a solid record, such a testament to the power of the influence of rock 'n' roll, recalling The Stones as much as it recalls Buddy Holly. If you like your rock with guitars that make you want to shake your hips rather than make your head pound, this is your ticket. I'll give it a B+. (in music we trust)
