78 Saab - Crossed Lines
Four long years after the debut ‘Picture a Hum, Can’t Hear a Sound’ Sydney four piece 78 Saab are back with their second full length release ‘Crossed Lines’.
I’d had my ear on this since its release late in 2004 and was not disappointed when Santa delivered it on Christmas day!
Working with producer Tim Whitten (Powderfinger, Hoodoo Gurus, Art of Fighting), the album was a long time coming but was well worth the wait.
It has been said that 78 Saab are a beautiful rock and roll band like no other and I agree. Singer - Ben Nash's distinctive vocals accompany psychedelic guitars with the dreamy rhythm section across a classic album of emotive and endearing songs that range from gently textured trippier moments to unrestrained rock.
If reaching #15 on Triple J’s Net 50 is any indication ‘Come On’ is the standout track on this 11 track gem. Not that the other tracks on the album leave you numb, this album is a must for anyone sick to death of manufactured commercial rubbish. I can only hope Santa delivers more of the same in 2005.
