LA RECENSIONE
Massive accumulation of Acid- Psych- Hard- / -Blues -Rock -Garage revival with a Parker Griggs all-rounder, perfectly at ease between guitars, drums, fuzz, wah wah, tube amps, and all that vintage equipment dated no later than 1975 or that sounds like it. With him, still for this album and then stop, his friend Zach on bass.The Radio Moscow capitalize on past experiences, churning out - in a sense - the most "extreme" album of their discography. The first "3&3 Qarters" (2004, recently reissued) was unripe and monotonous; "Radio Moscow" (2007) stood out for its personality amidst the revivalist melting pot; "Brain Cycles" (2009) is a mature and well-balanced work in all aspects: sound, songwriting, and psychedelic leanings. In "The Great Escape of Leslie Magnafuzz" (2011) what it lacks in writing it regains in music: it's sound, it's a continuous overflow of people who love playing, and it's made for those who adore those sounds. If you happen to whistle some chorus, it means that it's not as flat as it might seem at first glance.
"The Great Escape of Leslie Magnafuzz" is not their most beautiful album, but it is their coolest album.
