Chicago fuzz merchants the Funs bringing a chugging, lo-fi bravado to your more standard garage rock. Fittingly, given the recent passing of Gary Burger, the Fuzz at times recall the motorik drive of proto-punk weirdos the Monks (whom Burger fronted). Even with the buzzy noise that surrounds the Funs' music, there's still a hypnotic lull that it's quite easy to fall into when listening. The insistently strummed guitars and primal drums eventually fade into pastiche, letting the hazy vocals drift to the front. All of the discordant guitars and jumpy time signature changes-which surprise, after you let yourself settle into the groove of things-eventually amount to more or less a smoke screen for the Funs' cool, laissez-faire attitude, which ends up being the starring element of their sound. The Funs are laid-back, but far from resigned.
