Mount Carmel - Mount Caramel

Release Date:04/27/2010;Notes:Vinyl LP pressing. 2010 album from the Columbus, Ohio trio. If you're expecting lo-fi, greaser's palace Pop a la Psychedelic Horseshit or Times New Viking, think again. Mount Carmel is a straight-up Blues Rock power trio. And by straight-up we mean sans revisionist three-dollar currency, Sub Pop grunge hybridization or ironic posturing. These guys have been weened on a diet almost steadfastly consisting of British Blues/Rock innovators: Peter Green-era Bluesbreakers, Cream and Ten Years After are immediately recognizable in their sound. This isn't a lark or something these guys are doing between noise projects-it's their life. Good, old-fashioned Rock 'n' Roll, plain and simple. Some folks never made time for Punk, just like you've always snubbed your nose at the drum solo. Hard to believe, right? But just because you didn't live through it the first time doesn't mean you're not doomed to repeat it.;Track List:1. Livin' Like I Wanna;2. Still Listening;3. ZZ Breakers;4. Sacksburg;5. Hear Me Calling;6. I Work While You're Sleeping;7. Studio Jam
