Hayride

Elfin Magic (Capricorn)
by Rich Romaine

Once past the insipid indie rock title track, this was a wild ride. Tight, fast and ranging from hardcore grrrs to emotional punkpop, this guitar-driven release borders on psychobilly. This Athens, GA trio put together an album to be respected by both classic rock guitar lovers and viciously alternative speedfreaks. Produced by David Barbe (bassist of Sugar), Elfin Magic shift sounds as they shift styles, staying true to each.
