[FI] Harvey Milk - My Love... & The Pleaser



Just received two releases from these heavy rock'n'roll guys. They're seemingly a legendary 90'ies band, but their first release "My Love..." just seems so uninteresting. Kind of some avantgarde-ish experimentalism that smells like a failed attempt of achieving a cult-status of some sort. Regardless, it sounds like three kids playing around with instruments, making random rattle and out of context percussion beatings. In total, it's something far, far away in my horizon.

Now their other release, which also would be their newest, is their
"The Pleaser". It actually sounds alright, reminds me a little of John Squier and Mando Diao with some darker screaming. It's quite garage-ish and mashed, but heck, when has this been a problem?
The album's welcoming track "Down" is great, but after I finished the whole album it seems like the only track pulling on the album into a positive direction. Sadly, there's not enough to keep it away from the negative I think. Well, it just sounds kind of unstructured and too chaotic to be good.
