From Memphis Flyer:
I can't get Vending Machine's latest recording, Kicked and Scratched, out of the CD player. Former Big Ass Trucker (and current Mouse Rocketeer) Robby Grant is the oddball auteur behind Vending Machine, and he's working hard to replace expat Memphian Shelby Bryant as the Bluff City's most beautifully bizarre noisemaker.
Kicked and Scratched is almost Zappaesque in its tone and its eclecticism. Ridiculous but perfect Prince-like falsettos are sandwiched between thin synthetic beats and spacey, seizure-inducing keys on "Vacuum the Ghosts." "Saturday is the Best Day" starts out like an old Lou Barlow tune recorded on a broken four-track, but it evolves into a lush lost track from Pet Sounds. "Marriage Made in Heaven" comes on like a marriage between the Who and Pavement. There are nods to the Beatles (by way of Self Inflicted Ariel Nostalgia-era Guided by Voices) on the wonderfully minimal "When Will I See You Again?," and the head-bending guitar meltdown on "Bird Wing Curve" (a wonderful, Bic-flicking epic) is torn directly from the Grifters' guide to head-bending guitar meltdowns. The disc is peppered with the kinds of whimsical, farting-now/spaceship-later keyboards that made the Clears such a guilty pleasure. Guitar rock is kept to a minimum, but when the guitars are finally unleashed, they attack your ears as sonic Huns.
