Petty Bunco
EMILY ROBB - How To Moonwalk LP
With a formidable CV in the underground and sub-underground, Emily sits as the top contender for the East Coast’s most modestly masterful electric guitar abuser and this is the record to prove it.
Though she served as top talent in efforts by Astute Palate, Storks, Louie Louie, and Lantern, How To Moonwalk marks Emily’s long-overdue, mucho-anticipated debut unencumbered release.
Splattered across its eight or so tracks, How To Moonwalk shows a loyal respect to the rock n’ roll form while refusing to be held back by a single one of its limitations. No vocals, no artifice, barely even a drum. It’s a totally fried, mutant offering that’ll entice the twisted seekers - a sustained, distilled meditation on the unabashed revved up freedom of rock.
Recommended for fans of the reductive threads that run through Link Wray, Poison Ivy Rorschach, Les Ralllizes Denudes, and the Smashchords.
