Remember that awesome Trust EP by The Generationals that was released at the end of 2010 that got all of us here at KCRW overjoyed and in dire craving for a full-length fix? The title song was even featured in KCRW's Today's Top Tune. Yes, it was that goo Record Label: Cobraside Style: Alternative

Recorded in phases between Jim Eno's Public Hifi in Austin, producer Daniel Black's Bent Black studio in D.C., and the band's hometown of New Orleans, "Heza" finds GENERATIONALS more satisfied in songs that breathe and grow over time. These songs show restraint, with the hooks developing in the spaces between sounds and an attention to rhythms and textures that reveals a more patient band willing to dig for deeper gems than in their previous work. Tracks like "You Got Me" and "Put a Light On" use minimalist electronic frameworks to match the intensity of more straightforward guitarwork on "Spinoza" and "I Never Know," all of them placing the focus more on layers and arrangements than to forcing the hook. On "Heza", GENERATIONALS aren't so much shedding their old skin as growing more comfortable in the one they've always inhabited. "Generationals span generations, reach across genres, and are one Natalie Portman quote away from changing your life, I swear." - The Big Takeover "What Generationals are good at is writing rock and soul ear worms that replicate the sonic aesthetics of classic 1950s and '60s records." - NY Times Style: Independent
