Music is being transported somewhere, hopefully, a good place. For some, that might be the spot where you hang with your friends, drinking cold, cheap beer and pretending to intellectualize your way through a not so hot summer. That’s exactly where NYC via Salt Lake City Max Pain and the Groovies takes us. This is ’60s inspired psych rock at its best, youthful and unafraid. Groovy, indeed. The band’s waves of cosmic guitars and greasy vocals will surround you like an old ash tray. Let them, and don’t miss their upcoming performance at Berlin on 09.14. – Amanda Ogea
