Champion Leader is back with another batch of 80’s inspired new-wavy gothic alterna-rock goodness. Few people out there can dial in that modern 80s sound like J. Bozeman and company. The only problem here is that this ep is just too short. Maybe Bozeman has to spend time with other projects, like the new Luxury album. Maybe they felt like the four songs here were enough. Maybe they really wanted to call the ep 4st and had to stop. But that minor gripe aside, even if you aren’t a fan of the 80s, the modern production and solid songwriting should be enough to pull you in as well. So far, my favorite song of the batch is the groovin’ thump of “Fun!” Or maybe the goth rock goodness of opening track “The Souls of the Nude.” You can check this out on BandCamp for pay-what-you like.
