SECRET PEOPLE


More one and done Bay Area tastemakers? No sweat. Killer 'core with more motherfukkn riffs than a normal band would know what to do with - they were but a blip on my radar but damn these tracks hold up. Slight emotive tinge a la '90s California ("Decay" completely nails this vibe), but basically this is just an infectious riff factory. So many riffs. Like, the opener "You'd Never Know" has more riffs (and better riffs) than most bands deserve, and then they drop that guitar break before the stoney mosh in "Sink Deeper" and damn that should not work at all....but it sure as fukk does. And don't even get me started on "Demolition" because you might be here all damn day, and no one wants to listen to me for that long. Fourteen minutes from eight years past.
