about

After a string of cassingles released over the course of 2018 (which were subsequently compiled the following year on Jigsaw's "Everything Is Free" cd), this is the proper debut full length from Special Moves, an Olympia-based project led by Josh Hoey with ample accompaniment from a large number of friends. Like the earlier stuff, these recordings are a bit rough around the edges, but both the sound quality and overall flow of this album is a marked improvement over the compilation, giving this a much more consistent feel. Musically, this is still perfectly in line with Tall Dwarfs and early Portastatic, but with a slightly mellower, poppier aesthetic. Heck, even his cover of the Boyracer classic "I've Got It + It's Not Worth Having" is a friendlier, more melodic take on the original! And at under 20 minutes, this is a great album to quickly listen to when you're getting ready to run out the door...

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!! smiledozer

Kicking Every Day

I am pretty sure I love this album because of lines like this: "Time cast a spell on you and you will forget me I know I could have loved you, but you would not let me I will follow you down ’til the sound of my voice still haunts you You’ll never get away from the sound of the woman that loved you" . Somehow they hit really hard, even though the instrumentation is coercing you to sway back and forth in a positive form. quiet_calm_deceased
