I hadn't heard of The Pharmacy or any of their music before
giving this EP a listen a few times through - this turned out to be one of my
better life decisions. There's something
oddly charming about their sound; the driving pace of each song, the
imperfections in Scott Yoder's vocals, the occasional distortion thrown in
which takes you by surprise and adds a satisfactorily dark touch to an otherwise
upbeat song. Each of these distinguishes
The Pharmacy from an average 2012 pop/indie rock band - they add their own messy touch to
(in this day and age) factory-made music, which may be unusual, but they make it
fit perfectly. This EP definitely left
me wanting more (which is easily available, as they just released a new album: Stoned and Alone.)
Listen to it here
Artist Review on The Pharmacy coming soon!
(another note: The Pharmacy is currently touring! Although I don't think I'll be able to make it to one of their shows. Sad face. But anyways, check out
the next stop of the Stoned and Alone USA 2012 Tour here)
