Oh the Sweet, Sweet Changes

Product Description
Philadelphia’s Photon Band return with Oh the Sweet, Sweet Changes, their second full length of ’67-to-’69-styled mod-psych pop rock. The sound is more mature, harder and perhaps more urban than the Elephant 6 stuff, no bubblegum here, and perhaps the next evolutionary step. Photon Band fans who are fans of The Jam, XTC and The Who will be pleased. The Photons definitely deliver satisfaction in that department, but there’s something else at play too, something intruigingly and uniquely Photonesque. A post-Beatle path similar to the early, socially concious, hard rock of John & Yoko, and even more so, some explored and some not-yet-re-explored early ‘70s rock iconography in the realm of T. Rex, Status Quo and Small Faces. The Photon Band often evoke that innocent period of American hard rock immediately post Beatles, pre-stadiums, when rock culture was still counter-culture, the medium’s message was of new values, anti-materialism, liberation from society’s aged contraints and eastern philosophy. Most of all, this record is a rockin’ good time. Photon creator Art Difuria formerly played guitar as a key member of The Lilys and Brother JT & Vibrolux. He now attends The University of Deleware where he’s getting his PHD in Art History. Art is backed by longtime Photons Simon Nagel on Drums and Jeff Tanner on Bass. Simon and Jeff also helped write some of the album’s new songs. Just like the first record, Oh the Sweet, Sweet Changes was recorded entirely on Art’s trusty old ¼ inch 8-track (The Frizz Mobile Unit), which first underwent a complete rebuild and tune up. So, now we can hear The Photon Band the way God meant them to sound. The record was keenly mastered by Kyle Stateham of Matador Recording Artists Fuck fame at his Black Eyed Pig Studios in San Francisco.
