Rock! Wham Bam Southern punkrock from Alabama, USA!

Concert

Rock! Tussen punk, soul, power pop, country, gospel... Een kwiek kwartet uit Birmingham, Alabama USA, voeg dus ook maar 'southern rock' bij voorgaande opsomming. Nu klaar met hun derde cd: het dubbelalbum 'Youth Detention (Nail My Feet Down To The South Side Of Town)'. Of ook nog uit hun bio: 'The songs are deeply rooted in Bains’ experience of his hometown, Birmingham, AL. Youth Detention depicts a Southern city in the decades surrounding the turn-of-the-millennium: in the throes of white flight, urban disinvestment, racial tension, class struggle, gentrification, gender policing, homophobia, xenophobia, religious fervor, deindustrialization, and economic upheaval.'

In de pers

Aansluitend alleen al even het Britse Uncut: 'recently compared them to the best of Drive By Truckers Southern epic songs and says 'Bains admits the influences of Britsh bands like The Kinks, Jam and Blur but also 80s college rockers such as The Primitons, Let’s Active and REM.'
