Red Eyes - Get Out Now

Tuesday, September 13, 2011


Red Eyes is a punk and ska band out of Bristol, Wisconsin. The song Get Out Now primarily shows their light-hearted ska side. For how simple the video recording it is, this song is fairly well equalized while conveying the raw authenticity of live performance. The song flows well while the guitar and bass to stray far from each other while the drummer adds some mentally stimulating fills. The vocals are right on par for the sound they are going for. Upon further investigation the band has expanded to having two guitarist which I feel will offer up more depth and texture to their music. Considering Get Out Now is their first original song I am impressed by their over all talent and potential. If your in the Bristol Area try to catch one of their power pack performances and get lost in the crowd while this head turning music pulsates the crowd from head bobbing to head banging.

Ill Murray - Maldon Mud Race

Friday, August 5, 2011

Ill Murray is a garage band out of Cambridge, UK; born from the ashes of an older band, Boring Girls. Their sound is a raw fusion of Indie Lo-Fi and remnants of the daring age of British Punk. In their song Maldon Mud Race the band's potential is easily observed. you are gently lulled into the depths of a rhythmic bass line until the heavily distorted guitar shoves your face in the angsty punk mud puddle, splashing around the storm of cymbals. The vocals appears over the din and compliments shift from rage to apathy and back to rage. The persistent lead guitar is a testament to the indie component of their music in both tone and timbre, illuminating the background only to peek out between segments of the songs. The combined creative drive of the band makes them a formidable music force to be watched, and for the rest of the musical community in Cambridge, feared.
