Current Swell - Protect Your Own

28 outubro 2009


With their second release, this local surf/ska/reggae/rock outfit has really begun to find their own distinctive sound. Current Swell’s debut, 2005’s So I Say, sounded more like a Sublime tribute record, but Protect Your Own shows the boys branching out and really experimenting with new styles. Most notably, there’s a lot more slide guitar and harmonica, adding a grittier, bluesy aspect to their sound, particularly on tracks like the clap-tastic opener “Nailed Up” and “Cursed.” The more ska- and reggae-heavy tunes are still here (“Red Shag Carpet,” “Bring Me Down”) and there’s even a dose of twang (“Booze in Hell”) thrown in for good measure. This is a solid record that shows a real growth in the band.
