Album Notes & Community Reviews

'Mack Avenue Skullgame' serves as an eccentric homage to the blaxploitation soundtracks of the nineteen-seventies, filtered through a gritty, alternative rock lens. The Michigan band creates a raw, playful conceptual universe built on heavy funk-rock grooves and sprawling psychedelic jam sessions.
