Glitter Wizard – Kiss The Boot 12″ EP (Kitten Robot Records)

San Francisco-based Glitter Wizard has demonstrated a remarkable showcase of musicianship, skills, and experience on Kiss The Boot, their brand-new extended play release. Their ability to fuse early 70s glitter and space rock with their signature psychedelic glam rock style is mindblowing. This extended play release is a perfect example of how the band continually reinvents its sound to keep the real spirit of rock ‘n’ roll alive and kicking. Kiss The Boot features six tracks, including David Bowie’s Suffragette City. With every song, Glitter Wizard embrace the sound of the 70s by emitting all the vital elements of the era. She’s A Star, the opening track on this EP, sets the tone for the rest of the album with infectious hooks, mesmerizing harmonies, vintage synthesizers, and shredding guitars.

Glitter Wizard’s musical prowess shines on tracks like Glitterati and Sugar Beat, with even better ideas and progressive musicianship included. Their ability to blend fuzzy guitar riffs and energetic rhythms with their unique glitter/glam rock style is nothing short of impressive. Pogo Tonight is a groovy, infectious rhapsody that will leave you permanently foot-stomping, thanks to its shimmering synthesizers and hand claps. All the instruments on Kiss The Boot shine even brighter thanks to Paul Roessler (T.S.O.L.), who did outstanding work on this one. Glitter Wizard’s Kiss the Boot showcases their ability of the band to bridge the gap between old-school rock and roll with modern production techniques, and this collection of songs is an auditory feast that demands attention. Their commitment to keeping the rock and roll spirit alive is noticeable in every track. The uniqueness and charm of this material are undoubtedly part of the reason why Glitter Wizard is one of the most exciting rock ‘n’ roll bands you can hear nowadays, an their ability to experiment with songwriting and different guitar/synth leads makes Kiss the Boot an even more impressive release.

In conclusion, Kiss the Boot by Glitter Wizard is a must-listen for fans of psychedelic glam rock. It’s a remarkable showcase of the band’s musicianship, experience, skill, and sound, which makes for an unforgettable listening experience. Fans should look forward to hearing these tracks live when Glitter Wizard embark on their next tour, which will be absolutely unforgettable.
