When John Lee Hooker listened to this album it moved him to declare “I can’t find no serious defects” high praise from the big man of blues. Blues is probably the best genre to lump Gomez in, though they are to some extent a genre spanning band, though not as many as some. Standard blues you won’t find on this album, not even Hoochie Coochie Man or anything approaching a blues standard. Alternative blues perhaps, though don’t go thinking this is Jon Spencer. It’s a laid back, mainly lo-fi approach with tracks like Tijuana Lady that just seem to float in on the breeze. Perhaps slacker blues would be the best way to describe Gomez’s unique sound; there’s certainly not many other bands with this sound, and that, along with the sheer quality of the songs, is why I like this album as much as I do.
