Today's Listen
Band of Skulls - Baby Darling Doll Face Honey (2009)
This album is from a relatively new and unknown alt-rock trio from London. It has a really bad-ass sound to it throughout. Female bassist Emma Richardson shares lead-vocal duties with guitarist Russell Marsden, but don't be discouraged by it. The duo's vocals are surprisingly similar, which results in some very cool harmonies in many of their songs. Drummer Matt Hayward fulfills his job nicely, providing an excellent beat to all the songs, except for a couple solo acoustic moments. The band's sound could be described as bluesy garage rock that often recalls bands like The White Stripes, The Raconteurs, and even some moments that make me think Fleetwood Mac. I highly recommend this release to any fan of rock music.
