The Limboos “Off the Loop” 2024. Penniman Records. Madrid, Spain-based garage-soul, exotic r&b, psychedelic pop. Basically the kitchen sink of genres. Off the Loop is the 5-piece group’s fourth LP. I’m completely unfamiliar with this band – the album was a gift from some Spanish travels – so I can’t say anything about how it compares to their previous material. According to their Bandcamp page, on Off the Loop “they inaugurate a new cycle that confirms the restlessness and nonconformity of the band in the search for their own sound. How to define ‘Off the Loop’? The nine songs and 35 minutes of music included here reflect this broad perspective: lysergic passages, baroque pop, and beautifully crafted psychedelia intertwine with cinematic atmospheres, fuzz guitars, galactic keyboards and unique arrangements. In short, The Limboos’ sound has reached a place you never suspected.” My top pick is the almost-title track “In the Loop” which has a funky psych-garage vibe, followed by the hard, blues rocker “Stranded (I’m Moving On)” which also has more than a nod to psychedelia to it (love that 60’s organ sound). “Hangin’ Up” has a really laid-back soul-meets-psych groove and “Red Line” is a pretty decent ass-shaker.
