THE SALTSHAKERS
" Lights Out" ( Unreal Records ) 2009.
CD
Power pop - USA





The Saltshakers are quartet from Milwaukee Wisconsim, active some period on national underground area.The have released a 3 issues till now -
- " A Beautiful Mess", "Up All Night", and actuelle one - "Lights Out". The Saltshajers are faithful to one variant of power pop established in worldwide scene during the 80's. They are mostly infected by the British wave, but in group's approaches we can find also some other elements, as a rock, garage rock, and punk traces as well. One specific punk energy circulate through its songs too. A band has introduced themselves with 10 tracks in, with similiar approach and similiar realizations. Even that offering materials posses a energy of our time, The Saltshakers mainly has sounded as a retro act, and I would mention again 80's period aa a key influental era. All of band's songs posses evident melodicity, and productional works mainly satisfies.
