[Grade: B] Grassed Inn (Fire) is good-time, falling-down-the-stairs rock 'n' roll.
Blank Realm | B
This new one by Australia garage-blues quartet Blank Realm will give you flashbacks. But you won’t flash too far back. We’re talking summer 2013, when the living was easy. Back to the backyard, with the smell of meat cooking, a killer selection of vinyl to pull from and a bottomless cooler of Lime-a-Rita. Grassed Inn (Fire) is good-time, falling-down-the-stairs rock ’n’ roll — a little bit War On Drugs, a little bit The Clean and a whole lot of fun.
