The Exbats - "Best Kiss"


I don't think it's possible to have a better 60's throwback sound than The Exbats do. We've been into them for a while now, and "Best Kiss" shows a great maturation in sound by throwing back five decades. It keeps the classic garage rock sound we've always loved from them, but adds in the 60's girl group pop sensibility with just a smidge of psychedelia. It's filled with my personal favorite sounds from that decade, but updated to 2021. That's truly what makes "Best Kiss" truly unique and great: While it may be inspired by the 60's and sprinkled with that vibe, it's hardly a throwback song.

You can listen to "Best Kiss" below. Now Where Were We is due out October 22. You can pre-order a copy over at Bandcamp. For more on The Exbats, check out the band's Facebook.
