Eliza Stark & the Dappers

Higher

(Old School Records)



Sly pacing is the key to effectiveness. The trio conspiring to enrapture do so in measured manner, their commanding Rockabilly not so much outright conflagration as smoldering menace. Particular power is kindled when nimbly picked guitar, slam-smash drums, and doghouse-slapped-dizzy storm together. Grrr vocal salvos bedeck arrestingly. Ain't nobody gonna throw down against these three.

Recommended: "Gonna Get You Higher," "The Lonesome Soul," "Never Let Me Drink One More," "Motorbikes," "Fuck Them All"
