Tall Pat sure put out a pretty outstanding LP for his second 12 inches. We've seen Son of a Gun play out over the past year or so, and they killed it at the inaugural VoT party at Door #3 a couple of months back, when their set ended with a cover of Dan Sartain's "Fuck Friday" after humbly declaring "We don't know anymore songs." Live, Son of a Gun is on fire, packing their sets with unrelenting energy as they blast through songs and keep the crowd banter to a modest, and charming, minimal.
Son of A Gun's debut LP (their first 12 inches, too), No Bread, carries much of the same energy these guys pull off live, albeit a cleaner and more polished sound than they crank out at a bar with a bunch of drunk dudes scudding about and spilling their tall boys. Son of A Gun's knack for jamming elements of glam and mid 70s pop into a garage rock context is not too far of a throw from the Makers output nearly two decades earlier, but stripped of the boas and leather.
