If La Sera’s “Please Be My Third Eye” is any indication, 2012 may be the year that rock once again turns its back on reverb. In Kickball Katy’s case, her voice remains melodious even sans distortion. Replacing the departing Wall of Sound influences are more boisterous licks and heavier sustained riffs. Couple that with high-speed antics closely associated with adolescence and the only thing missing is Alicia Silverstone commenting “is this like a Noxzema commercial or what?” As if.
