Filtering down from Toronto, The Davey Parker Radio Sound move between early garage revivalism and straight up rural/roots tinged rock, with a dollop of psych on top. It's a lean, stripped down affair that calls to mind other Toronto outfit Action Makes. TDPRS isn't as 'heavy' as Action Makes, but their interpretation of garage-psych rock finds them drinking and playing at the same bars. TDPRS tackle straight up rock on cuts like I Paid for My Baby to more psych tinged rock like The Living City and Your Love is a Shadow. It's all undercut with a rustic bent that raises it's head more than once; you can't write songs about Houston and Trains without it. It's not all silos, flannel and sweat though beating you over the head: hints of more modern psych poke through more often than not (check the break in the Book of Faces waving its flag) putting one foot in the here and now, while the other is firmly back at home in the garage keeping tabs on the swagger and bluster.
