Fury Weekend delves deeper into unexplored territory on their third recording, Stranger in LA. The synthwave heavyweight has already demonstrated his ability to mix rugged guitar work with future-minded synthwave, and he takes it to the next level with cyberpunk undertones on “Down to Route 66” and “Malibu Knights.” Fury Weekend hasn’t lost touch with his retro roots though, as “Hollywood Riding” and “Stranger in LA” take classic outrun songwriting and fortify it with metallic guitar riffs and a dense dystopian atmosphere. The Stranger in LA EP is just one more reason to get behind this exciting project.
