Band of frequencies describe themselves as “progressive surf roots rockers”. Coming from Australia’s sunshine coast, the surf link is obvious, and the band have also toured California supporting the non-profit organisation Surfers for Cetaceans and played surfing events in Hawaii.
The music is rock, but with lots of other musical styles thrown into the mix – “Down to earth” for instance has a reggae feel to it’s beat mixed in with the ovberall rock feel of the song. There’s a nice laid-back feel to this album – this is music you can chill out to. Unfortunately that is also it’s downfall – the album just feels like background music – pleasant but unobtrusive, as there’s nothing that really jumps out and grabs your attention and makes you want to listen to it more.
