Percussion happy, White Rabbits, looked well rested despite a week long excursion down in Austin for SXSW.The sextet are cruising behind one of the year’s better album, “Milk Famous” released via TBD earlier this month. The new material plays like a bruiser live starting off with face melter, “Danny Come Inside” and contagious “Heavy Metal.” Stephen Patterson played the role of an evil scientist behind the piano and multiple drummers literally banging the drums to the melodic infectious beat. The guys brought everything together with the “It’s Frightening” jam, “Percussion Gun.” Am I crazy for thinking this, but White Rabbits have taken the torch from Spoon and not only ran with it, but they’ve taken the torch and gone Usain Bolt with their time spent with Spoon on their latest labor of love, “Milk Famous.” The release is the most balanced offering from the native sons of Missiouri that legitimately plays like an actual album. I will refer any doubters to “The Day You Won the War.”
