Nashville’s Jake and Jamin Orrall, aka JEFF The Brotherhood, formerly of Be Your Own Pet, play a satisfyingly straightforward, minimal style of psychedelic rock ‘n’ roll that now and again reminds me of a cleaner-cut power-popping Misfits (it’s in the vocals cadences). You get some of that in this Brad Holland-directed video for “U Got The Look.” They recently did a number of dates with Ted Leo — he’s a fan, which makes sense — and are set to do some shows with Shonen Knife. Heavy Days is out on their own Infinity Cat Recordings.

Heavy Days is out via Infinity Cat. Another track from it:
