Celebrate the Sun
s/t
self-released

Judging from the artwork, these dudes aspire to be the Red Hot Chili Peppers, but the music is much more inspired by 60s psyche-rock. They've got tons of classic vocal harmonies and that's their biggest strength. Think Crosby, Stills and Nash or The Eagles crossed with Nirvana or something like that. There's definite mainstream appeal, but enough twists and turns to make it interesting. It's still not the sort of thing I'd normally listen to, but I'm impressed. They've got a ton of potential, they just need to tighten up the production a bit. If the album was just a tad shorter and a bit more cohesive, it would kick ass.
