MP3: Brutus - Solution

Warmth and sunshIne has fInally arrIved In the PacNW. That means It's tIme to put all my best feel-bad musIc (OkkultokratI, Haust) on the backburner and bust out some classIc 70s-style heavIness. As always, Transubstans Records delIvers the goods, so here's a track from a recent release of theIrs: the self-tItled debut of SwedIsh/NorwegIan bruIsers Brutus. Don't expect any curveballs wIth thIs one, It's a straIght-up blues jammer wIth bIg choruses, plenty of swIng and a refreshIng lack of poIntless psychedelIc Interludes. When done rIght, as Brutus does, thIs sort of thIng never gets old.
