Dirty White Fever - 7.83hz (Goodbye Weirdo Records)

| Dirty White Fever - 7.83hz |
Release Date: 7th May 2015
Brighton duo Dirty White Fever
have a great name. I'm just putting that out there straight away. That doesn't
guarantee the music will be good but it gives me a reason to give a shit so
that's a start. Thankfully, new single '7.83hz' is worth giving a shit about as
the scuzz blues'n'roll is powerful, swaggering and frenetic in all the best
ways. Somewhere in the landscape of duos you will find Dirty White Fever
standing between the Black Keys, Royal Blood, Failure Machine, Moriaty and the
White Stripes but with a punkier edge and a real break-neck edge to things that
feels like you're careering through the Vegas streets at 90mph on a Saturday
night in a convertible. The b-side to this single, 'Hip Hop (live)', is an
absolute beast. Spoken word rantings are blasted out of the air by the heavily
distorted guitar, rattling drums and the rolling, spitting rap that comes
firing at you from every direction. Sure, it's a rough cut and the sound
quality is what you would expect from a live recording but oh my word the
energy, the power and the raw sex appeal is unavoidable and, frankly, why would
you want to.
