Bryan Scary & The Shredding TearsMad Valentines [EP]
Old Flame Records [2009]
Fire Drill Review:
Bryan Scary & The Shredding Tears new EP Mad Valentines is a mad mix of Queen theatrics, Ted Leo guitar, ELO's harmonies, Ben Folds piano madness and Brendan Benson's likable alt-pop vocals. It is this giant mash up of styles that gives this record pep and Scary's vocals that give it cred. The record could easily slip into a too campy category but its witty transitions work to keep the listener engaged and Bryan's fun delivery keeps you coming back for more!
Key Track: "Andromeda’s Eyes”
