BBsitters Club - Joel's Picks 2 - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

BBsitters Club is a rock band based in Chicago that features Doug Kaplan and Charlie Olvera on guitar and vocals, Max Allison on bass, and Paul Birhanu on drums. As the tag's de-facto in-haus band, BBsitters Club satisfies Hausu Mountain co-founders Allison and Kaplan's urge to remain connected to the rock and roll music they grew up loving and playing - far across the spectrum from the experimental electronics featured on the lion's share of HausMo releases. A solid four years after the one-two-punch releases of BBsitters Club & Party, the band's 2020 debut studio album, and Joel's Pick's Vol. 1, the first volume in a series of audience-recorded live takes from shows around Chicago, we find the BBs reviving the Joel's Pick's series with Vol. 2. Charged with the energy of a close-knit group of friends willing to follow along with each other's most outlandish ideas both in composition and live performance, JPV2 offers us a bewildering yet always tongue-in-cheek palette of ideas cherry-picked and mashed together into amalgams that both embrace Inchrock traditionsInch and defy them with a cherubic grin. BBsitters Club's amorphous compositions land somewhere between the world's most baked prog band and a jamband that's never content to lapse into wheel-spinning complacency. On JPV2, BBsitters Club cartwheel between eras and styles of rock music with abandon - a TV stuck flipping channels after your dad falls asleep with one leg on the remote. We encounter the elliptical dueling guitars and autumnal atmospheres of midwest emo / math rock, the gregarious stomp of electrified country rock, blues rock that has melted from ingesting one too many hallucinogens, and fried Devo-style art punk that breaches into the realms of ska before melting into free-form noise rock flecked with the bizarro imitative instrument tones of Kaplan's MIDI guitar.
