Album Notes & Community Reviews

The final studio album from the Toronto garage rock septet expands significantly beyond their raw R&B roots. The expansive recording incorporates prominent horn sections and organ, resulting in a rich, soul-inflected take on punk blues that channels the sprawling swagger of early 1970s Rolling Stones.
