RECOMMENDATION #60

LAS JUDIAS VERDES - PENNYGANGEN SESSIONS
self released 2015

swedish band with a spanish name upgrades an EARTH circa BEES MADE HONEY motif with some sultry MAZZY STAR vocals and more potent wah guitar action, kinda like a dreamier TRUE WIDOW, then it moves on to DATE PALMS esque peyote drone territory, gorgeous hummed harmonies in a mirage of guitar and organ tones, which gives way to a STEVEN R SMITHian gritty post blues guitar ballad that dissolves like cotton candy - despite how good the first track is, the more i listen the more i become enamored with the latter two, and apparently there's more material on the tape that isn't streaming - can't wait to hear what else "the green beans" have up their sleeves on this tape
