Banging good time with a crisp production that&#8217;s unfussy and on point. shitbaby Mammals don&#8217;t sound like a band who take themselves too seriously but just love making music and that&#8217;s what appeals to me with their excellent pop songs played with heart and soul through amps turned up loud n clear with just enough grit and dirt under those fuzzy pick ups and above of garage rock n pop, wonderful stuff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Shitbaby Mammals - Godspeed You!

A little more quirky, perhaps, with some interesting sounds and melodies that ricochet around the grey matter for ages. There&#8217;s enough pop and groove going on with these eight songs to satisfy any self-respecting rocker with a penchant for groove, grit, and inspired rock n roll. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The lyrics often mean nothing to me except for the melody they&#8217;re wrapped in, which is always on point and exactly what the song needs. Take &#8216;Carnegie Hall&#8217;, its pop music with loud guitars and a soppy melody, and oh yeah, some synths to add some more texture, and the chorus is hilarious. It&#8217;s power pop sunshine time on &#8216;The Joy Of Painting&#8217; halfway between a Brian Wilson Beach Boys hoot and a Cheap Trick rocker. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8216;Passport To Drive&#8217; is a riot and the best house party you&#8217;ve crashed in your life with that rolling thunder of a bassline like Los Pepes covering the Knack with a fucked fuzzbox that&#8217;s being played to death. A wonderful song that makes me feel happy to hear every time I put it on. The band play out with one last dance, &#8216;Jeopardy&#8217;, that manages to get its funk on before bowing out. Another top album from those Shitbabys and a Scandinavian ray of garage rockin&#8217;, power popin&#8217; rock n roll that manages to hit a real happy spot on any given rainy day. Keep on rockin guys you&#8217;re killing it and that cover makes me grin as well, fuck knows why but he looks so happy.
