Description
Late drive, windows cracked, that chunky riff hits and the city feels smaller. Big Sugar’s Heated doubles down on the band’s blues-rock heft with a sly reggae undercurrent that keeps everything moving. The Scene snaps to attention with clipped guitar and harp stabs, bass digging a trench under Gordie Johnson’s vocal. Better Off as We Are eases the tempo, roomy and bittersweet, while Girl Watcher flips a 60s staple into a fuzzed shuffle.
This 2LP orange/green pressing spreads the mix out so the low end sits deeper and imaging cleans up across the kit. You hear harmonica and sax sit where they should instead of fighting the guitars. It belongs next to The Tea Party’s late-90s output, but the groove here is earthier, less gothic drama, more streetwise swing. If you’d rather order online, you can buy Big Sugar records online with us.
Sequenced over two discs, the songs breathe between the crush and the sway. We spin it in the shop and there’s always a head nod from the back corner. For Melbourne listenings, it’s the sort of record that turns a small gathering into a nodding, grin-heavy hour without asking for the aux back. Order today, available online or for pickup in our Melbourne store.
