Secret Saucer - Tri-Angle Waves. 2009 USA-Ohio

Secret Saucer are an Ohio based group (not far from Cleveland), who've been around more or less for about 7 years or so. Tri-Angle Waves is their 3rd album. There's little here you haven't heard before, but a good space rock jam is still exciting to hear, that moment when it all comes together, and the fiery guitar solo sends you over the edge. All the genre's norms are on display here: Swooshing synthesizers, blazing guitars with as many effects applied as possible, constant heavy bass and drums - and with very little attention paid to meter shifting or dynamics... or melody. With Secret Saucer, you're getting exactly what you came for. When you go to In-N-Out Burger, you want a good cheeseburger, not foie gras. And Secret Saucer serves up a mean cheeseburger.
