An ass-kick that scoops up all power scoot available and churns it, balls it up, and lets it gel enough to hit the classic twisted forward propulsion groove.
Rick and his band do a pretty good job of achieving a Heartbreakers-like serious rock’n’roll aesthetic, power chordage by the numbers (listen to LAMF sometime).
The tones are consistent with the rock Mr. Radio Programmer isn’t scared of. The geeping and blorping done by synth are but spicing, and quite tasty at that.
