Yeah, yeah, I know that I’m a little late onto the Real Estate bandwagon. But really, if you think about how long the earth has been around for, I’m really not late at all. If you condensed the history of the earth into a single year, my lateness would only occur a few milliseconds before midnight on December 31. Right? Apology accepted.
Over the last couple of weeks I’ve been enjoying the band’s self-titled debut, which came out last November via Woodsist. In buzz band years, that makes Real Estate about 35 years old.
Check out “Fake Blues,” a shimmering beach jam with echoing, harmonized guitar licks piled on top of reverb-soaked vocals, which are buried down low in the mix. New Jersey tends to get a lot of flack (the Surrey to New York’s Vancouver, if you will), but this tune makes the Jersey Shore sound like a summer paradise.
