Loving<br />
Hailing from Spain, The Shake are an<br />
extremely cool neo-garage, slightly<br />
mod, very psychedelic pop/rock band<br />
offering up an album of perfectly<br />
sculpted songs dripping with<br />
harmonies with guitars both jangly<br />
and crunchy – it is truly<br />
Revolveresque material – reminding<br />
the label of the glory days of Cotton<br />
Mather. And yes, they sing in<br />
English!<br />
A quick listen will easily convince that<br />
The Shake grew up on a steady diet<br />
of Sonics, Easybeats, Kinks, Who,<br />
and Flaming Groovies – but we at the<br />
label like to think that the band has<br />
very much in common with such 21 st -<br />
century bands as the ablvereferenced<br />
Cotton Mather, the<br />
Greenhornes, Creatures of the<br />
Golden Dawn, and The Hives…and<br />
album track “Stop the Show” even has<br />
the sophisticated feel of Aja-era Steely<br />
Dan.<br />
In 2006 they were invited to the<br />
prestigious IPO festival and played at<br />
the mythic Cavern Club of Liverpool.<br />
[The Shake] make their influences clear from the beginning, so that nobody is<br />
mistaken…think Easybeats and Creation meets Small Faces…Full of riffs and shining<br />
refrains, their excellent sound is muscular and powerful, more in line with The Who<br />
crossed with The Kinks. The Shake convince without effort. Fans of classic guitar pop<br />
will collapse from excitement. – translated from popthing.com<br />
A swinging set of tunes with just an occasional peep out of the ’65-’66 time frame,<br />
though all of them sounding just as contemporary as they are MODern…should make<br />
you not only “shake”, but shout-n-shimmy as well. – Popism-music.com<br />
