DAMN VANDALS - SINGLE REVIEW

Damn Vandals - Mad As Hell 
Damn Vandals - Mad As Hell

Release Date: 23rd February 2015

London lads Damn Vandals are back with another single by the name of 'Mad As Hell' and it's coming at you like a snarling, slobbering beast with blood shot eyes. A growling bass soon gives way to screeching guitars, brakeneck drums and a hollering vocal that is preaching from the devil's pulpit. As a social commentary on that Falling Down moment we all have on a weekly basis it's pretty spot on. You know the one. That moment when Jeremy Paxman is on Newsnight with Russell Brand debating the media saturation of Kim Kardashian and her improbable posterior. B-side (score) 'This Music Blows My Tiny Mind' is a more melodic approach but still has the hips of Jagger and the gurn of Iggy. The guitars chop like the Strokes while the drums drive ever forwards and a certain Franz Ferdinand swagger mixed with the sweat'n'testosterone of Jet. A long tour schedule and a bit of backing by some indie radio stations is all these guys need to break through I reckon. You can almost taste the cusp.
