Anyhow Or Anyway

Clone Defects “Stray Boy” – It’s always cheap and easy to explain how something sounds by using the old “it’s like _____ crossed with ____” trick, but seriously, this song really sounds exactly like Nation Of Ulysses-era Ian Svenonius fronting the Stooges. And that rules; moreso for the “sounds like Ian Svenonius” part than for the Stooges thing, which I can sort of take or leave since I’m not a huge fan of The Stooges and quite enough bands ape them to begin with. It’s great reverb-soaked fun, and the album from which this is taken, Shapes Of Venus, is more of the same.
