Active compensatory factors: When ace guitar slinger John Squire left The Stone Roses he formed an alt rock band called The Seahorses. This is their debut album, and also their last album.

I really like his playing style - all that Hendrixian fuzz, and he benefits from having a good vocalist onboard. While he is no Ian Brown or Liam Gallagher, Chris Helme sounds like a sixties/seventies rock stylist and that fits the retro feel of the album.
Clearly John Squire is inspired by Revolver era Beatles and that's no bad thing. Obviously, I'm a fan!
Where do they all belong? The band fizzled out without developing their sound which is a shame. I did try the Squire/Liam G collaboration album but it didn't do much for me. The Seahorses is better in my opinion.
