MIND Chaos, the new album by
Hockey, is a jolly old affair.
The Oregan-based group's pop shtick is a cross between the pummelling rock of
The Strokes and the witty electro disco of
LCD Soundsystem, best demonstrated with the glorious opener
Too Fake.
There are plenty of diversions from this though, with self-proclaimed '80s grooves,
Bob Dylan impressions and sparse funk rock segments a-plenty - although these tend to see a dip in quality too.
It's not a cerebral listen, and the erratic nature of the LP stunts the flow a little, but if you like mainstream rock, and you don't mind chaos, try
Mind Chaos.
