About This Release
On Simple Sucker, Gooseberry explores what it means to be the perfect fool in today’s world. “There are songs where we’re poking fun at people for being fools; fools in love; fools who think they can impart wisdom for change; fools ourselves, longing to return to days gone by.” Across the album, the band turns a wry, self-aware lens on bigotry, fear, arrogance, nostalgia, and obliviousness, pairing irony-laced, shout-along hooks with explosive guitars to highlight the absurdity – and humanity – of it all. Gooseberry’s sophomore effort is impressively crafted and well-polished, bringing a swaggering, riff-driven edge to their take on modern alternative rock.
