Our Take

If Pitchfork Magazine had a British cousin, it would definitely be me, the one and only music reviewing maverick. Today, I have the pleasure of delving into GRINGO STAR's latest offering, "Controlled Burn: Live In Atlanta." And let me tell you, this album is like a cheeky pint of ale on a rainy day - it hits the spot.

From the moment the first note hits your ears, you're transported to a smoky, dimly lit dive bar in Atlanta. The raw energy and infectious enthusiasm of GRINGO STAR are palpable throughout the entire album. You can practically feel the sweat dripping from the walls as the band tears through each track with reckless abandon.

The seamless blend of rockabilly, garage rock, and psychedelia creates a sound that is uniquely their own. Tracks like "Rotten" and "Rotten Love" have a gritty, raucous energy that is impossible to resist. And don't even get me started on the frenetic guitar solos - they will have you tapping your foot and nodding your head in no time.

But what truly sets "Controlled Burn: Live In Atlanta" apart is the band's undeniable chemistry and stage presence. It's clear that GRINGO STAR is not just a band, but a tight-knit group of mates who live for the thrill of performing live.

In conclusion, GRINGO STAR's latest album is a raucous, rollicking good time that will have you dancing in your living room in no time. So grab a pint, turn up the volume, and let GRINGO STAR take you on a wild ride. Cheers!
