Ever wonder what it would sound like if you threw some Weezer, Jimi Hendrix, and maybe some Zeppelin into a blender and threw it on liquify? Well Lake effect is just that, hailing from western Maryland and playing shows all over the state including The Recker Theater where they were featured with Fools and Horses.
Lake Effect is currently unsigned but they are looking to produce their first full length album by next summer. As of now they have a short five demo that can be checked out on their myspace:
The first song “Circles” is the band's strongest and favorite song. When the song opens, the Weezer influence can definitely be felt in the guitar riffs. The song's lyrical strength and strong imagery are stand out elements.
The second song “So It Goes” has a similar feel to the first song. Following this is “Rescue Me” a much slower and more emotional song that has some smooth sexy guitar riffs and bass lines, and very emotional singing that is all tied together by a very solid drum beat.
Another great track is “Toe Jam” that features some most excellent guitar riffs and progressions with some intense bass lines that is all tied together by a nice mellow drum beat.
This band definitely has some great potential that is worth checking out. Their next scheduled show is at Towson University’s PAWS on November 21 at 8 pm.
