Under the Influence

Status Quo

The Quo doing what they do best: loud guitars, steady shuffles, and zero pretension.

A seasoned, high-energy swagger that feels both nostalgic and revitalized.

The sudden harmonica wail that breaks the tension in the opening track
The way the dual-guitar harmony locks in during the bridge of track five
