MANCHESTER MUSIC
3 August 2004 / Integrity Records / 3 Trk CD (Devil In The Woods)
By Manuel Ecostos
LA quartet Meow Meow blew us away with their
debut "Cracked".
It's fair to say that "Sick Fixation" doesn't better their
previous record, but it does come close. If Brian Wilson had fallen
in love with Neil Young and My Bloody Valentine and managed to maintain
his age at 22, then Meow Meow would most probably be the warped result.
Whilst the lead track uniquely blends lush harmonies to distortions
and bleeding guitar effects, "Breathe Easy" is equally
as wonderous and could happily live, as the champion of this release.
The band hit these shores this September (04). You'd be well advised
to check them out - they are something rather special by all accounts
so far.
