A difficult task ensues when attempting to pinpoint what it is about Bagbrown’s debut that sounds so eerily familiar.  Likened to most three-piece rock bands of the late sixties, the group transcends a bold electric blues mentality into their diverse, yet comprehensive approach to songwriting.  However, to say that it is reminiscent of a traditional pop record is a far cry from the term as defined by modernity.  Slowly driven with an emphasis on shifts between deep watery vocals and scathing guitar leads, self-titledpicks up pace and intensity as it progresses.

“I think, as most people do, that after fifty years of rock music much of the form has been exhausted.  So much music has been made there almost isn’t any practical need to record anymore of it.  Be that as it may, a void will always exist that needs to be filled by live performance.  People who have come out to the show almost always have an opinion of who we sound like or what we remind them of.  I know that’s the norm for any new band, nowadays.  It’s just easier to remember the last half-century and identify with the music you’ve grown up with or the bands you are used to hearing than it is to describe something new by its qualitative features alone.  I know I do it all the time.” says twenty-three year old front man Scott Heaton.

A true independent, Bagbrown is releasing their first effort on their own accord.  It is available today for physical purchase at cdbaby.com/.  Substantive LPs are often tall orders for new bands yet this ten song, forty-five minute release has become only an endearing portion of their live repertoire.  Accordingly, the outfit intends on returning to the studio this autumn to record a follow up EP (inclusive of a B-Side from self-titled) before booking regional shows.  For a more introspective look at the band including bio, pics, and updates please visit the following web address:

Musically inspired by the late 60’s-early 70’s, the album adopts the 7-song format and approach of classics like The Stooges’ Fun House, Neil Young’s , Funkadelic’s Maggot Brain, and Deep Purple’s Machine Head.

In line with that, it allows room for some instrumental exploration and long guitar solos, notably on the 9-minute closer, Record Store Blues. Similarly, there are some shorter songs, with perhaps more of a mainstream appeal, as in the two intended singles, Unsigned and Proud, and Make Some Noise.

The title too, is taken from that era. The Exodus Is Here is a line from Baba O’Reily by The Who, the opening track of their 1971 album, Who’s Next. Nonetheless, these links to older times are done in the wider context of the album, which largely deals with the changes in the way music is now being created, promoted and consumed.

The Exodus Is Here is Alien Alright’s third release so far, with each release being stylistically different from the next. His debut, Howard Good’s Radio Sessions (2004), was largely acoustic, whereas its follow-up, The First Impression EP (2005), used looped beats to combine straight forward Rock with Hip-Hop and Funk.

“I can remember the feeling of going to the record store”, sings Alien Alright in one of the concluding lines on the album. The future of record shops might be in doubt, but there can be some consolation, if thanks to the independence that the internet gives, more musicians make albums which are adventurous as well as accessible, and with something to say.
