“Revering a classic-sound based deeply in garage, psych, rhythm and blues, along with punk and good-ol' fashioned rock n' roll, Philadelphia’s Love City is full of love for a time deeply-felt in music that has passed but not moved on, and thankfully so. At first listen, L.C.’s gritty organ-based garage rock concoctions sound like relics from Monterey or Altamont, but a closer listen reveals a cornucopia of influences, from 70s punk to 80s new wave and 90s garage rock revival, all swirled together in a mass of hard-hitting songs. Long shadows and primordial distortion compete for attention within that retro mold—somewhere between the Animals and ? and the Mysterians—but there are sturdy enough songs at the core to make it more than just an exercise in style.”
