Like any breakup, distance is a necessary component to recovery.  And Ultra High Frequency is no exception.  Last time Radio Exile dropped in on the boys was just over a year ago during their mid-summer show at Pianos on New York’s Lower East Side [link].  Months later, the Los Angeles quartet dissolved, its members splitting between the two coasts.

Born from this very demise, Morning Fuzz [Myspace] finds guitarist Frank Fussa and bassist Chris Johanidesz back in their native New York after the year-long west coast residency.  Armed with a penchant for thick distortion and tight grooves, the Brooklyn trio, rounded out by drummer Billy Rymer, offers a familiar, yet refreshing brand of melodic rock.  Their three-song EP was self-released this past summer, and further showcases the band’s overall talent in crafting memorable tunes.  It’s the perfect dose.

The troupe will head back into the studio at the end of the month, and expects to have another EP in the beginning of the new year.
