Beverley
Kills/ The Destructors- split CD review
This starts out reasonably well- I
was surprised. The first three tracks
are by Beverley Kills, and this reminds me of a slightly more poppy version of
Vice Squad- the singer of this band has a little less snot and a little more
tone to her voice. Actually, it’s kind
of enjoyable. The music is mostly the
same, although I hear some Anti-Nowhere League in the basic sort of street
punk-y sound Beverley Kills has. The mix
is clear, the lyrics are decent, I would like to see what this band has in
store for the future. There’s a lot of
potential for them, especially if it’s grittier and less professionally
recorded next time around. The
Destructors’ songs are mid-paced fuzzy punky garage rock from Britain- somewhat
of a sound of its own, but nothing to go nuts over. These are pretty much standard fare for
Destructors’ songs- nothing very good or bad, just unnoteworthy. Unfortunately, they had to following a
surprisingly stellar band like Beverley Kills, and couldn’t keep up. Oh well- better luck next time, fellows.
