With their EPs, Austin's White Denim have built buzz as the next heroes of fuzzed-out psychedelic power blues in the style of the White Stripes and the Black Keys. But while "All You Really Have to Do" and "Shake Shake Shake" support that rep, their debut full-length shows a more versatile outfit. "Don't Look That Way at It" mixes looped guitar swarms, wordless chants and off-kilter grooves. "Wda" is a gear-shifting jam that echoes golden-era Pavement. And "All Truckers Roll" is a woozy road anthem with banjo, raga-rock drones and time-signature kookiness that points to drummer Josh Block's jazz roots. Where they go from here is anyone's guess.
