LOCAL DRAGS – Mess Of Everything

Description

Lanny Durbin is back with his third Local Drags album. With ‘Mess of Everything’, the power pop style of previous releases by the band from Springfield, Illinois has been twisted and cracked a bit, in fitting with the album’s title. More layered guitars, looser
instrumentation, weird tones. Pulling a little from wider influences such as Summerteeth’-era Wilco, as well as Tom Petty, the music finds the band at a different angle. The sharp songwriting has a darker sheen this time around, yet still allows optimism to lead the way. Burning out but, hey, it could be worse! Once again recorded by Luke McNeill of The Copyrights.
