FUGG
No Left Turn Unstoned
(High Beam)
Yeh Yeh Yeh! Fugg’s latest array of sounds puts to use some rock, some punk rock, and even some Star Wars sound effects! While other tunes can be only described as Fugg. A mix of new tunes and a couple of live oldies, No Left Turn Unstoned is Fugg through and through.
The first track ‘Tadpole’ has a typical groovin’ Fugg sound with added R2D2 sound effects, which didn't totally agree with me at first. Meanwhile the drumbeats and the lyrics on ‘Casual Sex’ amplify the humorous, carefree approach Fugg take with their music.
‘Dirty Dog’ and ‘Smalltown Nightlife’ have good punk riffs happening and
vocals that encourage a sing along, while 'We Got The Beat' shares hints of B-52 and The Clash.
I found a couple of the songs were a bit flat and droning, but if you love Fugg like everyone should then No Left Turn Unstoned is a must. I can't help but sing along and bop around the house to it.
