Plus Tapes

“Outer Minds take the sounds of garage rock’s first wave—twangy, Brian Jones-y guitars, off-kilter vocal melodies—and filter them through enough reverb to give their songs a diaphanous, dreamlike quality, like a transistor radio playing oldies from across an empty warehouse.” ~Miles Raymer

“This band used to be called Sang Des Loups, a name you might recall from some degree of Victim of Time hype-spew in the past. A couple gals on tambourine, organ and back-ups, guitar player from Black Beauties, the legendary A-Ron on bass and none other than Sweet Ronnie Coz on the kit. Four-song EP of jangly and kinda dark Jones-Stones rocking, easy-on-the-ears garage-twang, lots of gang chorusing and harmonizing, a bit of Sixties-echo and drawl. Mature rock. Short and sweet, I’m sure they have a single coming out on HozAc at some point.” ~ Terminal Boredom

“Their tape has a twangy garage pop sound enhanced by multi-part nice boy / girl harmonies and melodies reminiscent of the Vivian Girls dueting with the Black Lips. ” ~Permanent Records

“Chicago’s Outer Minds (with Mary from The Runnies on keys) play 60’s garage pop with early Pink Floyd leanings. You know, before Floyd started employing saxophones and back-up singers and boring the shit out of me.” ~daily diversion
