Demon's Claws are a garage/proto-punk band hailing from the underground mecca of Montreal... Ok, maybe not a mecca, but I think Demon's Claws are about to put that city on the map for incredible lo-fi rock. This album has twelve tracks of a great lo-fi sound similar to The Thermals from Oregon, mixed with the vocals of a drunken Bob Dylan! Something more is that, I thought my headphones were going bad until I realized the 'fuzz' that stays on every song is meant to be there. Trying to keep the true sound of a underfunded production, similar to many early Stooges and MC5 recordings, Demon's Claws 'fuzz' adds to their infectious, drunken indie garage rock. I dig what these guys have laid down; its gritty and dirty and nasty and full of flavorful grooves that'll have any fan of true basement rock drooling! Check them out and let everyone know you were the first to hear the latest phase of crusty garage rock. -MG |
