The title track rocks, just straight-forward rock, honest like Social D. Other tracks are more rockabilly, some swagger a bit more, but the drums are thin.
I love most of these tunes, usually the garage bop stuff, but a few songs have me checking to see if I switched to the next band’s CD, which I hate instantly.
In 1967, The Elastik Band released one of the most notorious records ever entitled Spazz. Hear their entire works, most never before released, on this CD.
Earliest Darkest Hour recordings so you can appreciate how much better they are now. I’ve reviewed them a bunch, but I don’t remember them ever being this bad.
Good like Burger King. They have a great ’70s garage punk sound, and really catchy, singable, anthemic songs, but there’s one just like them on every corner.
These are rock guys moving into rootsier music. The vocalist sounds a bunch like Big Audio Dynamite/Clash singer Mick Jones. Friendly and kinda wistful.
While Dead Can Dance utilized folk music to court Renaissance Goths, Sam Rosenthal went after high-brow graphic designers by means of darkwave chamber music.
Dodsferd is a one-man project from Greece. Wrath is that man, and his music has been dubbed “dirty black-n-roll,” a combination of raw black metal and rock.
A combination of classical, Gothic, and darkwave, flawlessly constructed with piano, keyboards, and strings. An air of sorrow and melancholy flows through.
