After toiling for three years in obscurity, this dark, brooding, quasi-Goth metal trio from San Francisco has started to get the notoriety they deserve.
This extraordinary debut is loaded with heavy, pounding guitar sounds, immense percussion, and clever bass lines. Maria has the most amazing set of pipes.
Take yer basic psychosurf and rootsrock barnstomp, add some barely passable guitar playing, a little simplistic drumming, and a bunch of fairly awful singing.
This disc is simply loaded with attitude, both lyrically and in terms of its delivery, due in no small part to the raspy, smart-ass vocals of Eleanor Whitledge.
