SYD ARTHUR - ODE TO THE SUMMER
Dawn Recording Co.

Timely stuff, a song about summer released on Halloween… though of course it isn’t really a summer song at all. Instead, this is a pretty impressive, funky, psych-out blast of prog-influenced blues (enough genres for you there?) that grooves along impressively. I have no idea if this is staggeringly commercial or bloody-mindedly obscure – probably both – but as it reaches a cacophonous, frenetic climax, you can’t help wanting more.

Very possibly awesome.
