REVIEW: JPW + Dad Weed "It's Happening"

[Repost from Here Comes the Flood; by Hans Werksman, April 28, 2025]

Phoenix, AZ, lo-fi duo JPW & Dad Weed have made a video for It's Happening: "a scuzzy sounding exploration of left-field indie rock, as if the instruments have been gathering dust for a couple of decades. Somehow everything still works, which comes as a surprise for the musicians themselves. The bass and drums only interlude is a 101 for less is more, before giving way to a Tom Verlaine inspired guitar leading the way to a 60s Sci-Fi psych coda." It is a track from their Amassed Like a Rat King album.
