Banshee TONY MOLINA Confront The Truth[2021 Reissue] LP Indies Only Black 12 Vinyl When Tony Molina released Confront The Truth in 2016 it had been three long years since his previous record (the now-classic album Dissed And Dismissed) and anticipation was intense. Tonys crunchy Teenage Fanclub-meets-Replacements power-pop was in- formed sonically and spiritually by his beloved SF South Bay area DIY punk scene, but Confront The Truth confounded the desire for more of the same by spotlighting Tonys formidable songwriting with spare, mostly acoustic arrangements that hearken back to the circa 1967 psychedelic folk-pop of early Bee Gees, The Move, The Beatles and Tomorrow. Out-of-print for several years, Slumberland are happy to bring this record back on vinyl now, and this time as a 12 rather than 7 to give these beautiful, delicate songs more room to breathe. Truly the kind of aural tonic we all need right now. Tony Molina only deals in sub-15 minute records and while the albums are musical fast-food youre not eating a flat burger youre eating nouveau cuisine, baby. While previous records have been pure power pop, on 2016s Confront the Truth Tony went for tender folk picking, Beatlesesque ballads and beautiful earnest openness.
