15/12/2014, Paul PLEDGER
It may be wrong to judge a record by its sleeve, even its label. But when an album comes dressed in something straight out of the '60s and appears on an imprint called Voodoo Rhythm, you'll be guessing that rock and roll of a slightly rough, ready and tribal nature will burst forth from the speakers. And what did I tell you? Movie Star Junkies were all set to support Ty Segall on his UK tour at the time of writing, which also tells you all you may need to know about the contents of Evil Moods. Kinda druggy garage-rock that reminds me of Gallon Drunk had they been signed to Jack White's Third Man Records. More of a phenomena than a collection of memorable songs, Evil Moods is psych-blues bluster primed for ear-splitting than heart-warming. Rising is a top tune, mind.
