PLASTIC SOUL ROCK 'N' ROLL

Rare is the band that seems to coalesce around a who gives a shit? attitude so much that it makes the whole band/audience dynamic irrelevant. In that way, Beehive and the Barracudas pretty much rule. They have an air of audience as band, straddling the line between fuck it all side band and raw rock 'n' roll genius. These are the guys who were fucking around in the garage while the hipsters were out shopping. I love how they're recorded. Enough is enough, song done, on to the next one. Nothing's overdone, nothing's pandering, just some cardboard sounding drums, weird riffs, and lyrics that let you discern what the hell they're getting at. The first one below the video is a Gun Club cover. I like it much.
