Dirty Cousins - Blisters

Saturday, August 13, 2011

Dirty Cousins is a Garage Rock band from Cambridge. One immediate charm of the band is the vocals. The combination of lead and back up vocals really set the tone for their song Blisters. A lot of English singers through rock history have dropped a significant proportion of their accent and I have found this to be an atrocity in most cases. The distinct accent gives the song an elusive element genuineness. For percussion lovers, their is excellent consistence through the song. Personally, I enjoyed the use of Hi-Hat quite thoroughly. I wish I could hear the bass a little better, but I assume that the bass was meant be kept in the background supporting the foundation of the music. The heavily distorted guitar has a mildly Lo-Fi allure to it. The primary riff returned to through out the song is fairly simple but bent notes really kick you in the teeth with some rock attitude. Give'em a listen and look forward to their upcoming EP!
