the etiquette

Review of the "Ages..." EP - available from cdbaby.com and iTunes."The Etiquette are from Milwaukee and these happy days are yours and mine. Ages... was pressed into my palm like it needed slipping under the tounge - and what a fix it is. Six brilliant songs lashed down in what sounds like a firestorm of spiteful hate and last-gasp, desperate love. Recorded like a demo, it barrages your heart full-tilt because of the escape from modern productions deodorising confines. 'Giver' is a one-hit wondrous tune, sounding like the Foo Fighters remembering to have fun again. 'Geared To Nowhere' revs in sludge but takes your trebly head into the stratosphere. 'Autumn Song' is the centerpiece with a chorus to bellow till your lungs bleed. Closers 'Hometown', 'Longtime', and 'No Suprises' take on the spirits of Chavez, Beekeeper, and prime Dinosaur and jackbox them into fab new three-minute odysseys of infinite reach. Deal-less and undiscovered as yet, could someone with a chequebook that ain't as bouncy as mine just show us how much we should love this band? 4 out of 5 stars." Neil Kulkarni, Bang Magazine(England)
