Shellshag – “Rumors Ni Disguise” – [Don Giovanni Records]

surferrosa   4/3/2013   A Library, CD

Male/ Female duo from Brooklyn, NY playing simple, catchy, garage pop tunes that will make you want to dance around and sing along. Their names are Shell Head and Jen Shag,they play guitar and drums and switch off or share doing vocals. Plus the amplifier they plug into looks like a spaceship or a beehive or something. Jen, on percussion, does not use a kick drum and barely any cymbals making for a pretty marching, floor heavy beat. Riffy, overdrive guitar grooves all over the place. These jingles are short, energetic and good fun. -Surfer Rosa
