Thick Shakes – Why Buy The Cow (2011)


Thick Shakes
Why Buy The Cow
2011

The Thick Shakes Why Buy The Cow EP is everything garage rock should be: raw, catchy, overmodulated and pressed on 7″ black vinyl. It sounds easy, but few do it this well. A song as great as “Go Back To New York” doesn’t need to be dressed up in fancy clothes. Just spit, snarl, bang it out and get the kids bopping. You even get a couple of kickin’ B-sides in “Neighbor’s Goods” and “Banned From The Laundromat”.

As for the vinyl, it’s a small hole 7″ in beautiful basic black. It’s wrapped in a folded jacket and inserted in a vinyl bag. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

Where to get it:

Thick Shakes have a great garage rock sound. It’s dead on, but not put on. It’s just who they are. Guitar, bass, drums, Farfisa and some catchy tunes. I like it.
