ASHLEY, GREG "Neon Exotica" LP

***"Greg Ashley (The Gris Gris, The Mirrors) keeps the flame lit with a new solo record for Almost Ready. The album opener, “Medication #11,” has a weary wobble to it, a kind of beleaguered grace that floats the song’s invective on pungent breezes. There’s a sense that Ashley’s done taking shit, finished suffering fools and, honestly who can’t relate about now? The song starts out the cycle on his new album Neon Exotica..."—Raven Sings The Blues (Almost Ready)
