As warm weather approaches, sometimes I want some easy listening. I’m not talking about Johnny Mathis, I just mean that sometimes I just wanna hear something I don’t have to work too hard at wrapping my head around. Los Angeles rockers THE CRAZY SQUEEZE are currently doing that for me. This is beer drinking music, cutoff shorts making music, and as their bio says:, you know: music for fucking! Slimy rocknroll anthems that make you want to smell like sweat and cigarettes, the kind of thing that Johnny Thunders is doing drugs to in the afterlife. These songs are chock full of the catchiest riffs I’ve heard in quite some time and the bass lines will walk all over your brain. Lyrics about familiar topics like girls, dancing, kicking girls out of your bed, being nasty, etc will be stuck in your head before you even finish listening to the album. Rocknroll at it’s finest, get the debut LP from THE CRAZY SQUEEZE HERE.
