Like a long lost Fluid disc, Electric Sweat proffers primordial MC5 riffs with a healthy dose of soul as only four white guys in leather jackets with every Motown record in their collections could manage.

Producer Jim Diamond has distilled the manic energy of one of the world's greatest live bands in Electric Sweat, and if the result is not letter-perfect, it is raw and true and powerful.

MagnetEvery bit as visceral and thrilling as fellow Manhattanites the Strokes. [#54, p.98]
-
An infectious collection of grooves that proudly utilizes the traditional vocabulary of rock and roll.
