▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ Release Notes ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄
Despite what the name suggests, "indie rock" is rarely
independent in either style or label backing. The phenomenal
and unexpected success of Nirvana clued the major labels into
the fact that they were becoming fossils and the search to
find the next group of grunge rocking shoe gazers who could
move at least a million units was on. Sadly, the outcome of
this (in typical industry fashion) has been that the majority
of what falls under the category of "indie rock" sounds as
much the same as the new wave pop bands or arena rockers they
were supposed to be the cure for.
Occupying their own singular niche in this confusing
scenario, San Francisco's Hugh consistently fulfills the
implicit promise of "indie rock," releasing records that
stretch the boundaries of the genre without falling prey to
masturbatory and pointless experimentation, writing songs
that strip away the studied distance and cool detachment that
is the primary affect of most of their peers. Their greatest
achievement so far is the seven song EP Lucky Drive, a
beautiful and engaging album that benefits greatly from
repeated listenings and holds up to scrutiny on just about
every level.
Lucky Drive is framed by two of Hugh's best songs, "Ruby
Cruiser" and "East of Reno," (the latter penned by bassist
Murray) both sprawling collages of guitar noise and
fascinating sounds held together by a strong melody and the
backing of Murray and Foster. Hugh's ethos is perhaps best
personified by the opening lyrics of another of the album's
strong cuts, "Little A," which swings effortlessly between
piano ballad, country rocker, and blazing punk attack: "I was
made with a silver tongue / makes the truth come all undone /
"A" you're little, but still you're grand / but you're making
me feel like a two inch man."
Hugh's forte is the interplay between delicate passages and
brawny guitar attacks, brilliantly anchored by the dynamic
drumming of Gavin Foster and bassist John Murray. Principal
songwriter and singer Dave Rosenheim is that rarest of
talents in this day and age, unafraid to wear his emotions on
his sleeve without pretension or self-pity, and observant
without being gratuitously cynical.
