You and Everybody Else

And we all go forward, reaching the place that we can

Fighting Gravity were a Richmond VA band (coincidentally so are Carbon Leaf) who started out as a Ska band called bOb, I actually discovered this band from a Carbon Leaf-inspired radio station on Apple Music funny enough. It's not hard to see why, the music is very similar to what Leaf was doing in this part of the 80's, just not as folk inspired.

This album is pretty enjoyable, it's got that 90's indie style production, with prominent bass parts and reverby vocals, energetic guitars and drums, and very melodic. The standout song to me is "Lost In The Rain", it's got a great bass line and even has a Sax solo adding an extra layer
of pizazz on top.

It's a neat little album that definitely sounds like the time and place it came from, and it might send you down a little nostalgia trip even if you've never heard them before. I dig it!
