Ep follow-up to Bleached 2013 debut album, the sister duo continue their garage rock style. The title track was left out from the debut, but eventually they made a new studio recording of the song and felt it should be issued. Perhaps it has a bit more surf rock and rock & roll to it with reverberating twangy guitars, which is found in the two remaining tracks. The second track is a cover of a song by the 1950s and 60s American rock & roll, doo-wop band The Coasters, though this version has more in common with a Rolling Stones cover of the song from 1963. The last track is a cover-version of a song by 1970s Brittish punk rock band The Damned taken from their '76 debut album. With this 3-track ep Bleached continue to shine, and they keep being more than hot air.
