| Locust Avenue - Three
O'Clock Target |
| Album
Info: |
|
Formed in Norman, Oklahoma after the guys got together
as a Kinks tribute band, Locust Avenue went their separate
ways, reformed, and eventually joined up with guitarist,
Todd Walker (Defenestration). Led by the strong songwriting
talents of Jeff Richardson (guitar/vocals) Jeff Cooper
and Blaine Palmer provide bass and drums (respectively)
to a soundtrack of pain, love, and longing – you know,
all the things of solid musical fodder.
Three O'Clock Target ( a reference to the victims of
after-school bullies) is nine tracks of rich, Guided By
Voices-tinged guitar and Ray Davies influenced storytelling.
In the opening song, Frenzy, we begin to get a picture
of Richardson's optimistic protagonist. The pace continues
to an almost explosive point on the third track, Skeletons,
a fuzz addled ode to past lives and love. It all wraps
up with Get Off the Farm a nearly eight minute psyched
out tribute to perseverance.
This is the third full-length by Locust Avenue. All the
records are distributed by Gabe Wingfield of the small,
Norman-based indie label Maritime Fist Glee Club. He has
one complaint about the band, the brevity of their releases.
"I still haven't figured out why they can't seem
to break the 40 minute mark," remarks Wingfield,
"but it doesn't really matter I suppose, at least
not when the songs are as good as these."
