“It’s a freak show out there // It’s a vacuum of despair // But at least you’re not alone // So away we go.” Minneapolis-based indie rock trio Yam Haus pulls no punches on their radio-friendly mini-album Stupid and Famous. Lars Pruitt (vocals), Zach Beinlich (guitar) and Jake Felstow (drums) bring seven dynamic songs full of hooks to the table, tunes with a big sound in which guitars and synths alternately demand attention. A vibrant release with ravishing moments.
Stupid and Famous, mixed & produced by Tony Hoffer, is out now via Big Loud Rock. Streaming only for now.
