Gods Reflex

Scenes from a Motel Seduction (Johann’s Face)
by Tim Den

Well-sung, clean-guitar-o-plenty emo with a pinch of rock. I hear a lot of Midwest influence in here, especially in the way the vocals grab you by the chest and rub onions in your eyes. Very touching, sentimental, heart-tugging melodies that’ll make you wish you had a break-up bad enough to mope in your room for days over. This isn’t the no-brainer powerchord-and-atonal-yelling crap. Pretty damn good.
