This starts off with a short intro track ('Palo Santo' 1:22) from The Bad Light (CA) before heading into effect-laden bass wonderland with 'Goodshit'...it sounds almost like a synth plodding along under drums and harmonizing vocals. 'The Feels' comes at us next with a sick main slow groove riff. 'Love Letters' comes at us next, with an upbeat bluegrass feel and nice hi-hat work. Big fan of The Bad Light here, unique-sounding band in a sea of stoner-rock sameness.
Tuna De Tierra fades in next with some really mellow spacey vibes on 'Red Sun'. A 3-piece bringing some desert rock from Italy, these guys are impressive. 'Ash' picks up the pace a bit and gets trippy and heavy in spots, ending on a mellow note again. 'El Paso de la Tortuga' rounds out the EP on a really mellow desert cowboy feel.
