#242 Purling Hiss - Public Service Announcement

This is the one Dusted actually reviewed. The intersection of their debut and the sample track on dusted seemed impossible, so lets see.

There are bare vestiges of the jam band found on the last album here, this sounds more like a more aggressive Guided by Voices. Yes, there's some jamming, but the songs are much shorter, sound like they were recorded live in a living room (Run From the City could be right off Bee Thousand if it was shorter by a third), and they're downright catchy at times. Contrary to the dusted claim, this is the one I actually like the best, there's a diverse, creative, immediate sound on display here 4/5
