resh-Onlys/208978487600=0Ahttp://thefreshandonlys.blogspot.com/=0AThis has =
been a decisive year for San Francisco=E2=80=99s the Fresh & Onlys =E2=80=
=93 including invitations to play All Tomorrow=E2=80=99s Parties and then t=
hey joined Deerhunter for a UK tour, extensive treks throughout the US, and=
 standout performances at the Woodsist festivals in NY and Big Sur. Keeping=
 with their notorious urgent pace the Fresh & Onlys released a handful of e=
xclusive 7=E2=80=9D singles, and Captured Tracks issued the lush and anthem=
ic August In My Mind EP. Now to cap off the year, Play It Strange arrives f=
rom the infamous In The Red Records with a tour supporting Clinic across th=
e US to follow. Play It Strange is the third full length album recorded in =
just over two years since the band=E2=80=99s inception with previous albums=
 out on Woodsist and Castle Face. This newest album is also the first recor=
ding done outside the band=E2=80=99s own analog home studio. Hot on the hee=
ls of touring and arranging these new songs live, Play It Strange was furio=
usly recorded and mixed in one week with Tim Green (Fucking Champs, Comets =
On Fire) at Louder Studios in order to better capture the muscularity and d=
epth of the band=E2=80=99s live performances. The Fresh & Onlys newest is a=
 shimmering pop record full of infectious melodic hooks, led by singer Tim =
Cohen=E2=80=99s hazy romanticism, and the incessantly propulsive rhythms of=
 Shayde Sartin and Kyle Gibson. Play It Strange has an evocative moody swag=
ger that jangles with 80=E2=80=99s guitar pop like the Go-Betweens, Jacobit=
es, or early R.E.M. and a provocative rawness ala Iggy Pop or The Gun Club.=
 The record is saturated with guitarist Wymond Miles sonic textural sprawl =
full of desert guitar-noir phrases that call to mind Morricone/The Bad Seed=
s. Play It Strange is an addictive record that will establish the Fresh & O=
nlys as a band that effortlessly laces together threads of great guitar ban=
ds from decades past. They may not be your favorite secret to keep much lon=
