Nashville’s Jake and Jamin Or-rall started JEFF the Brotherhood as a country-ish garage duo — a little sludgy and a little fuzzy with a whole lot of twang bar in the mix. Think The Cramps, but with a good attitude. Now, with their Dan Auerbach-produced seventh album, Hypnotic Nights (released by Warner Bros. back in July), we find a darling sense of poppy melody, some sunshiny lyrics and an occasional Krautrocking leap emerging. That might look wrong on paper, but it sounds so right. The Orall brothers open for Delta Spirit, the San Diego no dep/emo band whose new, self-titled album is probably the best thing they’ve done, kinda like Dr. Dog, only bluer than blue and sadder than sad.
