CD Review – Finfangfoom (Loud building rock that is fantastic)

Monomyth

Lovitt Records

This album is what real rock is supposed to sound like. Building chords and choruses that climax into a grand and wonderous musical explosion. I haven’t heard slow-building rock this good since The Lost Stars b y Hope for the States. They toe the line of subtlety and a smack in the face, so well that you’d think they were rock gods. I do. The fact that a trio can sound more like an amped up symphony is something only musical geniuses can accomplish. I think the three in Finfangfoom are just that.
