Our Take
Our Take
Shannon & The Clams have once again invited us to their nostalgic, reverb-soaked party with their latest album, "The Moon Is In The Wrong Place." And let me tell you, I wouldn't want to be anywhere else when the moon decides to play tricks on us.
From the moment you press play, you're transported to a world where surf rock meets 60s girl groups, with Shannon Shaw's powerhouse vocals leading the way like a modern-day Ronnie Spector. The Clams provide the perfect backdrop with their signature blend of lo-fi garage rock and doo-wop melodies.
Tracks like "Oh Louie" and "Mysterious Haze" are filled with infectious energy and catchy hooks that will have you tapping your feet and singing along in no time. But don't let the upbeat tunes fool you - there's a darkness lurking beneath the surface, with lyrics that touch on heartbreak, longing, and the general chaos of life.
The production on this album is top-notch, with each instrument shining through crisp and clear, adding depth and richness to the overall sound. And let's not forget the delightful use of saxophone and organ that give the songs an extra layer of retro charm.
In a world where everything seems to be in chaos, Shannon & The Clams remind us that sometimes the moon might be in the wrong place, but as long as we have good music to dance to, everything will be alright. So grab your dancing shoes and let this album be the soundtrack to your next moonlit adventure.
