Made Of Gold
Self-Released, 2019
8/10
A young outfit out of San Jose, California, The Dangerous bring indie-rock and reggae together with their breezy and detailed formula where peace and love are reoccuring themes across these well thought out tunes.
“Drivin’” starts the album with fluid grooves and lite-reggae sensibilities and further along “One Love” brings warm vibes on a vocally expressive highlight. “Made Of Gold (For You)” then flows with bright melodies and dynamic interplay between the proficient instrumentation on a feel good reggae anthem.
Late in the disc, intricate guitars and the fuller atmosphere of “She Comes & Goes” get a bit spacey with plenty of rhythm, and the calm guitars and spirited percussion illuminate the romantic “So High”,
Although this is their debut, the members of The Dangerous have already cut their teeth in outfits like Citabria, The Cool Bus Experience, and Yeshua & The Hightones, and their collectively chemistry here brings us an easily enjoyable record with tremendous lasting power.
