Echolocation is the astonishing debut album from Mendoza Hoff Revels, an electric & formidable new unit led by Ava Mendoza (electric guitar, compositions) & Devin Hoff (electric bass, compositions) and featuring James Brandon Lewis (tenor sax) & Ches Smith (drums). A super-group of our time, all profound creative artists in their own right, rocking mightily together, in their prime. 21st Century progressive rock played by punk rockers with serious improv skills & jazz feel. And non-stop wicked catchy tunes, riffs & grooves. Strong sonic references are The Stooges' Funhouse, rendered by a band readily adept at rapidly swinging rhythmic & harmonic shifts, plus tenor sax on every track! -&- Minutemen, both their whole body of music & their fundamental egalitarian punk ethos.
