Brooklyn’s Best Behavior‘s 12 track debut album ‘Good Luck Bad Karma‘ is just 22 days old, but it promises to age well. We found this band in the CMJ Music Marathon 2015 list of official artists, and immediately surrendered to their succinct and rough melodic gems, reinterpreting within their garage rock vocabulary many styles, including the longing psych rock of Best Coast ("Buried on a Mountain") and Nirvana’s introverted, cathartic grunge (check out the chorus of opener "Star Signs," streaming). More lo-fi than any of the aforementioned bands, the band’s record strikes the right balance between grittiness and spaciousness – which results in character. You can see them live at Elvis Guesthouse on September 21.
