Second Place

Blasted Canyons, “Second Place” (Castle Face, 2012)
This label can do no wrong in my book, and this just might be its best release yet. Blasted Canyons hit the sweet spot right where trippy garage-punk evolved into no-holds-barred freakout psychedelia, and filled it with pop melody, sound-spasms, and everything but the kitchen sink, while always staying hooky and on-the-beat.
