For  Grand   Mal's  third full-length,  Bad   Timing , the band works with its rock & roll strut and campy appeal for a divine garage rock romp. It's obvious that these New York City boys worship the sexy rule of 1970s rock gods -- David Bowie, Mick Jagger, MC5 -- but they're not entirely consumed by such an image either.  Grand   Mal  is strict in defining its own brand of rock & roll on this record, and producer Dave Fridmann (the Flaming Lips, Mercury Rev, Mogwai) keeps  Grand   Mal  in line. While B.R.M.C. turns up the amp all the way,  Grand   Mal  sticks to a lower volume to allow  Bad   Timing  to simply arrive. Songs like "Old Fashioned" and "1st Round K.O. offer a subtle swagger, whereas "Get Lost" and the gospel-tinged "Black Aura" tame the band's ambitious playing style for something more inviting.  Grand   Mal  isn't going for anything bombastic with  Bad   Timing , but it's a good dose, a healthy spoonful of new millennium indie rock.
