Album Review
The Unbearables: Get Hit
(stem and leaf records)
RATING: 3.5 out of 5
The Unbearables combine 60’s British Invasion and garage melodies with a punk energy to produce their danceable, poppy sound that has developed a loyal following around Austin. Their debut LP, Get Hit, presents the songs upon which The Unbearables have built their following in a tightly produced package. Depending on the track, Marshall Escamilla and Ian LeClair trade lead vocals duties, the blend of LeClair’s scream-singing and Escamilla’s smoother tone being one of the immediately noticeable trademarks of the band. The rhythm section, Tim O’Connell on drums and Harrison Speck on bass, provides a persistent bouncing beat as a backbone to this relentlessly danceable album.
