Artist- Fergus & Geronimo
Album- Unlearn
Label- Hardly Art (imprint of Sub Pop)
Genre- varied
This Brooklyn by-way-of Texas duo’s first LP is a smart and often funny blend of 60’s style jangly pop-rock. It’s off-kilter at time, drawing from a range of influences. “Powerful Lovin’” and “Unlearn” have the slow waltzy tempo of old 60’s R&B crooners. Most tracks have the attitude of the Violent Femmes- “Baby Don’t You Cry” is a jangly rocker with the same nasally voices (though less annoying) as the VF’s. The CD indicates a band that isn’t fully sure of their identity yet, but the varied styles means that there’s something for everyone.
