While I’m re-uploading all torrents as seed because I had reformatted my PC, I was found on my mail box with some requests for re upload this band’s material who created one of my favorite records last year, which sparked that I do it , although not have much time to write on this Mother´s Day weekend, but this review game game of sharing my music is so nice..
If you’re from Madison, Wisconsin, you know that Dead Luke haunted the scene for the past few years with their performing of lo-fi mess of power pop , noise garage and psych rock
He used to play in a band called The Dead Hookers, but they broke up and he has gone solo. He also takes part in Absinthe Minds , Zola Jesus, and formed beside Max and Ben an rockabilly band The Lonesome Savage .
This guy’s scope is pretty vast, all their excursions were corralled on three tapes and two LPs among 2008 – 2011 , discordant listening experiences, passing from some tracks retro synth go into reverb drenched in psychedelic haze unto currently with an excellent follow up to last years efforts, creating a entirely different beast with a new direction and a refreshing blend of psych-rock with bluesy intentions.
Now, following last year “Meanwhile… In The Midwest” LP, Dead Luke returns with his newest creation of garage, noise, psych, rock with a cassette christened “God Takes LSD”. I ordered it , it’s only a matter of time until I share it , although you know , I live in Argentina and things are tough here for imported products, my last purchase took about three months to get here, so I hope someone decides to share it on the web early to I listen it . Below I leave a sampler of two tracks I found on Soundcloud.
I hope you have the time to review the whole thing, don´t think you regret , but if just haven’t , you should get a nice listening at least of their last year´s record , highly recomended .
All said, go to enjoy it…again
