Fly Golden Eagle - Quartz Bijou

Review by Nick Roseblade

To get the full impact of the album you probably need to go to Mexico and wander around the desert»

Psych-rockers Fly Golden Eagle release their new album 'Quartz' through ATO Records. The band, who recorded the majority of the record with Andrija Tokic in The Bomb Shelter, Nashville, also recently played on some of the most significant albums representing the new Nashville sound, including Benjamin Booker, Hurray for the Riff Raff, Majestico and Alabama Shakes. Fly Golden Eagle have also toured with Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros, Arctic Monkeys and more. When you lower the needle down onto a Fly Golden Eagle record, you'll hear a few different things at once. You'll hear the stomp-heavy drama of T. Rex. You'll hear the swirling colours and textures of The Doors. You'll even here a growl of punk rock mixed effortlessly with the choral echoes of the gospel church. And it is all of these - the psych-rock-glam-funk-gospel sounds - that unify to fully form this Nashville quartet and their debut album 'Quartz.'
