Our Take

The Standells have always been purveyors of gritty, garage rock vibes, and their latest album "Is This The Way You Get Your High" is no exception. From the moment the fuzzy guitars kick in on the opening track, you know you're in for a wild ride.

The band's signature snarling vocals are front and center, accompanied by punchy drums and dirty riffs that will have you nodding your head along in no time. It's like stepping into a smoky bar in the 60s, with the smell of stale beer and cigarette smoke wafting through the air.

Tracks like "Dirty Water" and "Sometimes Good Guys Don't Wear White" showcase the band's raw energy and attitude, while slower, more introspective songs like "Try It" provide a nice change of pace. The Standells manage to toe the line between classic rock tropes and modern sensibilities, resulting in an album that feels both nostalgic and fresh.

Overall, "Is This The Way You Get Your High" is a solid addition to the Standells' discography. It may not break any new ground, but it's a fun and rollicking listen that proves these rock veterans still have plenty of gas left in the tank. So kick back, crank up the volume, and let the Standells take you on a wild ride through the golden age of rock 'n roll.
