I Can Tell By The Stars In Your Eyes - V

Posted by V

Hitting the pavement like a band of derelict teenage boys on summer vacation, Chicago’s Smith Westerns are just the breath of fresh-faced air this city has been waiting for. Songs about girls, boys and fleeting adventures create the thematic backdrops for the band’s jangly melodies. Youthful abandon and wide-eyed innocence radiate from the perfect mix of noisy guitar and past-referential garage pop. Don’t be fooled by their disaffected demeanor and boyish charms, the Smith Westerns self-titled debut is a powerhouse of an album, chock full of spirit, enthusiasm and raw talent.

The Smith Westerns are going to save this city, one chord and three sneers at a time.
