PALMS – STEP BROTHERS
Even when Palms are rocking out, they’re just cruising.
Their LP, Step Brothers is a twangy Telecaster driven album, that has a lo-fi mix which really works for what they’re doing. The songs have range, yet also a common thread running through them.
The style is best described as a dusty hang-over feeling that oozes out of every track. The first song wakes you up gently and by track six you are well into a greasy breakfast.
There is definitely no getting out and going for a run with Palms. (LC)
