Almost Ugly – Basement Tapes EP

posted in: July 2012, Music Review | 0

This iTunes only ep is a bit of a history capsule. When Crumbacher called it a day, former members Dawn Johnson and Chris Duke decided to form a band and go in a completely different musical direction. This is female-fronted alternative rock, right up there on par with anything that was popular in the 1990s. To my ears, they sound like a good mix of Garbage and Viva Voce. As with any ep of good music, the main problem here is that this is too short. These songs were featured in many TV shows through the years, so you might even find a few of them familiar. One of the songs up on their MySpace page is not on this ep, so one can hope we will get treated to another collection soon.
