Fighting Trousers by The Shazzams
With a volatile formula that melds Franco-Anglo-American influences, The Shazzams have concocted a remedy for backbeat nostalgia on their debut album 'Fighting Trousers.'
Justin Houser leads the group with songwriting, vocals, and guitar and effortlessly pulls garage rock, blues, country, and punk motifs from his sleeve in a dazzling sonic display. The album weaves garage, rock, blues psychedelia, and energized country to create a sonic fresque that shakes through the speakers like quicksilver lighting in a bottle.
