"One of the year's best. Which year? Any year." - Mojo

"It's all insanely catchy." - Uncut

On their second album (and debut with Innovative Leisure), Los Angeles group The Molochs interpret multiple threads of rock history-starting with Syd Barrett and Dylan, The Kinks and Stones, right up through the early 80s "Dunedin Sound" of The Clean-and come away with something refreshing.

It starts with an anxious electric minor-key melody and ends on a last lonesome unresolved organ riff, and in between comes beauty, doubt, loss, hate and even a moments or two of peace. There are flashes of 60s garage rock-like the Sunset Strip '66 stormer "No More Cryin'" or the "Little Black Egg"-style heartwarmer-slash-breaker "The One I Love"-but like one of Foster's and Fitzsimons' favorites the Jacobites, the Molochs are taking the past apart, not trying to recreate it.
