3.0 good | Antonius | June 19th 22 | Following the homage to their Delta heroes, Dropout Boogie comes as a natural follow up from Ohio's most-known garage rock duo. Dan and Patrick stick to the formula that has served them so well for the past two decades: a skilfully delivered garage rock with that amped-up blues sound that has a unique rock & roll minimalism as they deliver blues right from their soul. The album opens with a couple of groovy tracks ("It Ain't Over", "Wild Child") in a swaggering fuzz, just before the swampy "For the Love of Money" will enter and drive the rest of the album right down to the Delta-sound road with a guest appearance from the legendary Billy F Gibbons (ZZ Top). Dropout Boogie migh be lacking some killer hooks and at times lyrics sound pedestrian ('Your team is looking good/ But not as good as ours'), but is a light, breezy and enjoyable record.
Recommendations: "It Ain't Over", "Wild Child", "Good Love", "Happiness".r

3.0 good | Voltimand | May 14th 22 | More like 3.2–3.3, but still very good. Sounds like a love child of Delta Kream and
Brothers, though doesn't quite achieve the same highs. The track with Billy F. Gibbons is a
banger.
