"The Tyde are a band that has been kicking around in LA for a while. They have a huge UK following. I have seen them play with Brian Jonestown Massacre. In fact, they are doing a big tour with BJM this fall. Now we have the third album. It sounds a little like Beachwood Sparks and Frausdots, some previous side projects for this group. On this album we have some brothers in crime, like Conor Deasy from The Thrills, and Mickey Madden of Maroon 5. One of the best songs is "Brock Landers." Listening to this album again, there is few weak moments. It may be there most accessible yet. Halfway through it becomes more like Spiritualized. Another favorite of mine is "County Line" which is almost like a Canned Heat song. The James Figurine remix is pretty interesting. This is a pretty cool record. I lived in Southern California half of my life. I never surfed and barely know how to swim. With this album I can imagine what it is like being out there on a wave in the sun."

"This one comes up a little shy of its predecessor, the excellent "Twice." But the best 5 or 6 songs stand up to their best stuff and up to anything else that's come out this year so far. Their image makes you think of 60's sunshine pop but in their sound they are really more like 80's Britpop and maybe even Paisley Underground. But if you want to feel/see the real power of this band, check them out live."
