Atlanta, Georgia might be famous to most as the southern fried incubator of hip hop innovators Outkast, but that’s all about to change.
The newest and dirtiest stars to come out swinging from this talent lodestone, Black Lips, have certainly been skulking around the underground for ages. But with this, their fifth effort, the caterwauling cacophonists have finally delivered the slingshot full of scuzzy garage rock to get the wider music scene’s mouths gaping.
Good Bad Not Evil, besides being one helluva showcase of songwriting panache, is just pure, unadulterated flower-punk fun. Infectious as a penicillin culture on a month old baguette, it’s raucous, raw and irrepressibly irresponsible.
Full of diamonds like Bad Kids, Katrina, Navajo and the jaunty spaghetti western balladry of Cold Hands, your summer could very well hinge on this album.
