Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
The Grates - The Ouch, The Touch
Sounds like a novice melting pot of indie-rock cliches. The Grates, a lo-fi 3-peice act from Australia blend a bit of kid-like wannabeism with oddly mixed guitar and drums for what shall surely be “the next big thing.” I know I listened to this late at night, but I honestly couldn’t figure out who vocalist Patience Hodgson is trying to imitate (or fool). It’s listenable and I hope for their parents’ retirements sake that their debut Gravity Won’t Get You High has a smaller reading on the embarassing meter. Seriously guys…seriously. If you want a date to the dance, just be yourself.
