Allah Las announce debut album on Innovative Leisure

It's been quite the week for California garage rock - first, Ty Segall garners heaps of critical adulation for "Slaughterhouse", and then Thee Oh Sees announce their gazillionth album in a time frame of six years. Maybe not that much, but I've obviously lost count. And there's nothing wrong with that - record labels used to pressure artists to release multiple albums in the same year. Didn't The Beatles release "Please, Please Me", "With the Beatles" and "Hard Day's Night" in 1963? So perhaps the Allah Las work deliberately slow because they're pop perfectionists. After countless sporadic gems, the local gang have finally unveiled their much anticipated self-titled debut. Less rackety than their Northern and OC Cali counterparts, Allah Las seem to be pointing at a more breezy and tuneful direction - just take a look at the video for Tell Me (What's On Your Mind), which features the quartet sporting exquisitely-tailored matching suits and shaggy hair through the lens of a Super 8 camera. Innovative Leisure will be releasing it on September 18th. Oh, and while you're at it, sync it on your device of choice and have a day out in the sun , why don't you?
