The Kinks gone grunge? The 60′s gone 90′s? The rock gone pop without losing any power?
All these things togheter, i guess. Research Turtles seems to take their name from Wes Anderson‘s film The Life Aquatic and surely they share the same electricity of the genial director. Powerful riff, enough distortion and killer harmonies that won’t easily go out of your ears. Research Turtles‘ self-titled debut album was recorded at the legendary Dockside Studios in Maurice, Louisiana, produced by Justin Tocket (Marc Broussard, Sons of William) and it rocks, it pops, it does whatever you want. But it does it good.
