It seems that Lo-Fi has been all the rage lately. One could only guess as to how long this trend will last (my money would be on not much longer). But for the time being it is here, and there is some great music being made which utilizes certain Lo-Fi criteria, mainly, a lot of fuzz or reverb and an apparently lower recording quality. This renewal of the Lo-Fi sound has typically tended to lean in a tropical, ‘Endless Summer’ direction (think Wavves or Surfer Blood).

Well, this is different. There is a definite Country Western vibe going on here, mixed in with a bit of 50′s era rock. This is relaxed and  pleasant to listen to, and still fuzzy enough to cash in on the Lo-Fi resurgence. Get it while the gettings hot. Spectrals have released a split 7″ with Fair – Ohs, It’s out now from Toughlove records, check it out.
