Don’t let the album cover fool you. Hailing from our nation’s capitol, Summer Rain’s Tye Dye is much more about alternative modern rock than hippie retread jams. The songs from this four-piece outfit are mostly up-tempo and rather catchy, and you’ll be surprised how often your feet tap in time to the music.

The production is rough, but its rawness almost suits the tracks. This is good music for a road trip, and one of the songs, A Long Drive, beckons the listener to do just that. These guys rock hard, but even noisier tunes retain enough space to keep the music at an even keel. And Justin Grim’s vocal stylings fit nicely with these tunes, particularly on ballads.

Favorite Track: Track 5, “Breath”
