Beyond The Sky = LP, Orange = (LP)
It's tempting to say that if your van's not rockin', don't bother knockin' on La Chinga's second album for Small Stone and third overall, Beyond the Sky, but the truth is that just about everybody is invited to come dig on what the Vancouver, B.C., buds have put together this time out. It's a collection of 11 tracks topping 45 minutes that makes the most out of big, unabashed hooks and a classic party-rocking sensibility, from the opening "Woo!" in "Nothin' That I Can't Do" into the '70s-styled "Wings of Fire" and the proto-metal-turns-stoner-mellow-solo-jam "Mama Boogie," which may or may not be a sequel to "Boogie Children" from their 2013 self-titled debut (discussed here) and which you'd best believe brings back its chorus at the end, it brims with energy well beyond what might qualify as "electric" and sounds in true Small Stone fashion not like it's mining its influences for parts to reorder and recreate in vintageist loyalty, but instead like it's engaging with the legends and rockers of yore -- Nazareth, AC/DC, Judas Priest, and a host of others among them -- to hone a modern interpretation of what they did those generations ago.
