Little You, Little Me
I’d Watch the Day Til It Died
(Monopolized Records)
3.5/5

The second album from Saint John, New Brunswick indie/garage rockers Little You, Little Me is enticing: no small task, considering it was recorded on a selection of broken or sort-of-broken equipment.

With heavy guitar sounds and gritty vocals, I’d Watch the Day Til It Died has tracks with real rock attitude. The song “Eyes To The World” really lets their guitarists shine, with eerie squeals and stark licks.

Unfortunately, on some tracks the guitar work and vocals seem out of sync with the other instruments. And while several tracks flow into each other with great energy, others seem to start or end incredibly fast.

Little You, Little Me has a rockin’ sound, even when recording on fixed-up gear. If they ever end up coming this far west, they are worth seeing live for a true experience of their indie-rock vibe.
