Clawless Paw 7''
Sophomore Lounge
2013
Rating: 7 dried out sharpies out of 10
Local lads Last Year's Men have presented 2013 with a pleasant seven inch of their jangly garage sound. Side A track "Clawless Paw" starts off with a fury reminiscent of another local Triangle group Whatever Brains, but that comparison instantly drops when Ben Carr's vocals kick in and you get that Last Year's Man sound that somehow sounds sweet and grimy at the same time. The flip side "What I Can Get" is a little "janglier" than the first track, sounding like a lo-fi outtake from their full-length record released a few years ago, "Sunny Down Snuff." A great couple of songs that hopefully people outside of the Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill area are giving a shot.
