Faux Co.: Set The Record Straight B/W Prozac Spaceman


After two live releases, Chicago's Faux Co. come with their first studio release, the single Set The Record Straight B/W Prozac Superman. The two tracks are jangly indie rock with a bit of a post-punk aesthetic melded to a slight retro vibe, and combined with witty lyrics. These are good songs with a a nice edgy sheen, unfortunately marred a bit by muddy production. Production that tends to blur the individual parts together and takes out the energy, rather than allowing each to stand and build the sound that surely must exist in the tracks. An overall good record that could stand a bit more energy and clarity of sonic being. Stream and buy Set The Record Straight B/W Prozac Superman at the link below.
