Portland, Oregon teenage garage punks the Shivas graduate from the world of low-key cassette albums with Whiteout!, the most fully formed work of the band's early discography. While still just out of high school, the Shivas toured the country ceaselessly in support of tapes on labels like Gnar and Burger while honing their songwriting chops. The results are found on Whiteout!, with equal parts sloppy fireball garage rock ("Swimming with Sharks," "Living and Dying Like Horatio Alger"), emotive melodic indie rock in the Pacific Northwest D.I.Y. tradition ("Gun in My Pocket"), faux surf ("No Waves), and even gentle harmonies sung over laid-back acoustic country arrangements ("Heart and Soul"). Boy/girl vocals and dynamic songwriting shifts make for exciting variations that never lose their heart of punk energy. ~ Fred Thomas, Rovi
