LUCKIE STRIKE
"Future Is Turning"
Tomato Head Records

A California label here, Tomato Head, Sacramento. Sent me a copy of this EP. It's not such a bad thing to have, really. I don't get a lot of CDs in the mail these days. Too much outta the loop from those halcyon jockey daze...

But I like this band. Chick singer, a pretty good rock-chick-drummer and guys on bass and guitar. They sound like a good garage rock outfit, and not just your ordinary forgettable alternarock. Catchy enough for multiple listens. The cover of Elvis Costello's "Radio Radio" is a pleasant addition.

Support indie rock and buy, buy, buy!
