Search - Ssm :: Ep 1

Garage rock? Detroit sound? Dance Rock? Synth pop? The sound created by SSM (the acronym currently stands for Szymanski, Shettler, Morris) is original and addictive. Following the release of their acclaimed debut album, here comes a 6 song mini CD with one remix track from the album (Put Me In - Tropically Hot Mix) and 5 new tracks (Country Mouse, City Mouse - Belle Isle Daze - You'll Be Glad You Did - Fiction Rock N Roll - Belle Isle: Reprise). The distinctive cover is once again the work of painter Matt Gordon, while Dan Auerbach of the Black Keys collaborates as sound engineer on 3 tracks, the rest of the release being the work of Chris Koltay. SSM will be touring the US this Fall with an appearance at the Arthur Nights in Los Angeles. "If it's not futuristic and it's not a throwback this must be the sound of now. Future vintage garage rock" - Just Add Noise. "Strap on your space helmets, kids: this is Garage Rock 2.0." - Blogcritics. "Not Just Another New Band." - The Crutch. "SSM, a supergroup of sorts, have succeeded in creating a modern psychedelic/garage rock hybrid" - The Sentimentalist. "Absolutely essential debut release so much so that you'll never want for those Pebbles compilations ever again" - Losing Today
