ROCK: Apes w/ Company, Tiger Cried Beef (2/19)

Published by Frank De Blase on Feb 13, 2008
"Ghost Games," the new album from D.C.'s The Apes, is ghoulish and velvety. There's just no ignoring the majesty of that big-ass B-3 or the band's narcotic groove. The band is comfortable in its vintage psyche and antagonistic in its melodic oddity. Everybody digs a little weirdity, but it's gotta sound good. And The Apes sound good, baby. "Ghost Games" is the first album with the elastic, fantastic vocals of Breck Brunson.
