Froth

LA band Froth match 13th Floor Elevators­-style reverb guitar to the same sense of psychedelic desolation that made the Brian Jonestown Massacre such a fascinating band, and they end up with a sound that hits the high notes—yeah, we said high notes—from at least two or three decades of secret underground guitar exploration. Their recent LP, (available in a few formats from Lolipop), catches them at their best, but they’re approaching that point in their life cycle when a new album may soon be emerging. If their very recent 7­inch (recorded by dios’ Joel Jerome) is any indicator, they’re foaming at the mouth more than ever—it’s sharp, raw and beautifully discordant in all the best ways.
