Comets on Fire - Avatar (2006)



Continuing their tradition of burnt out psychedelic garage rock, the Comets tone down their sound on this release but lose none of the fire. These songs are like flames jumping and dancing in the dark. There is something very earthy about them that fits with their sound very well. Avatar is a logical progession from 2004's Blue Cathedral.
Amazing album artwork too...Im a sucker for that kind of stuff.

while this album often gets pegged as their most "mature" album to date, which is a fair statement, it is also their most cohesive. probably the best one to start with for beginners, then work your way back.definitely also check them out live if you get a chance. totally awesome.
