Astro Fang, and the list goes on and on…
Big Takeover is pleased as a punch-drunk boxer to host the premiere of Baker’s debut album,
Yesterday’s Slime, today on its release date. The LP finds multi-instrumentalist Baker behind the drums and on guitar, bass, synthesizers, and vocals.
Taking its cues from a long line of Ohioan heroic art-damaged indie rock guitar bands, the sound here fondly recalls the snotty spark of early indie rock, injected with walls of toy keyboards, and layers of oscillating, bleeping, and blooping synthesizers.
Baker’s overactive mind and hyped-up energy run riot through the vividly scintillating baker’s dozen of tracks. He sings with a gritty and defiant punk rock attitude, aiming true with direct lyrics on messed-up relationships, self-doubt/-worth, and the challenges of everyday life.
