this from days ago, so lost to history, but i only know the two most recent sun araw full lengths: heavy deeds and on patrol. both are fantastic. i.e., much more great than most things routinely described as great. some of the best stretchy head psychedelic guitar music i've heard in years.

total 11
the advert insert that comes with the cd (harking back to that other recent thread re artwork etc) is now making me draft up a much larger wish list than i had previously.
mission accomplished.

j geils band - full house
just cued up used copy i bought for $2, cuz everybody had such great things to say about it on the j geils thread. sounds like king khan & the shrines took a LOT of pointers from this record, though it's hardly an unfamiliar sound. "first i look at the purse" would fit in seamlessly on three hairs & you're mine or what is. "homework" is more sultry, but no less ott. nice.

hey daniel, glad you got that message. dunno whether or not you've downloaded anything yet, but my take is that heavy deeds is the more burning, intense & rock-oriented of the two albums, big debt to lysergic heavy psyche of the 60s & 70s, coming off like funky hawkwind or some shit. tunes and playing recall acid rock and dr. john style voodoo funk, with some talking heads/eno style 2nd hand africanisms. on patrol is more hazy and abstract, with much sparer and less frenzied guitar playing (not that stallones ever gets all that frenzied anyway). tunes are less direct, more hypnotic & intuitive, almost accidental seeming, but in a good way. big dub influence, but debts to direct precedents in 60s/70s rock are comparatively few.

j geils is some corny shit. digging it when they're on fire, but the shtick in between gets old fast.

Daniel Esq you should know that Sun Araw's music doesn't come with the usual verse/chorus structure, or even an obvious sense of progression. what he does with his chanted voices, looped guitar, dub effects, and conga pulses is create a huge vibrating canyon of movement-in-place that feels shamanic, a unique blend of blues and soul signifiers floating in space. So, not songs per se, but very trance-inducing music for seekersI like the "Heavy Deeds" album but prefer the sparser dubbier aspects of "On Patrol"
