loud and lurking
much like the previously posted review of Rasun Omari’s “Recorded in Orbit”, i initially found out about Stanley Brinks and The Wave Pictures’ “Orange Juice” in college. the difference between my finding of the two albums is that while i found Recorded In Orbit on my own, Orange Juice was introduced to me by a large, screaming group of friends which is exactly how the title track was meant to be enjoyed. i’ve seldom yelled louder, had lyrics hit closer to heart, and played air guitar harder. i truly believe that this is a generational track for it’s ability to bring people together as i have personally witnessed the effects of the song.
the second song on this short album “Maybe I Will See You Again” gives a totally different yet equally entrancing vibe as the title track. as opposed to a loud rock ballad about navigating society the second track is a mysterious-sounding beach rock track about navigating an intimate relationship with equally ripping guitar solos. the jumpiness of the guitar ballad and Brinks’ voice beckon you to bob your head along.
recommended tracks
not much work i have to do here to recommend two songs from the album since there are only two. go enjoy them!
(and might i add, a masterpiece of an album cover). thank you Stanley and Pictures!
