Stormy Days is an outstanding new album from Dead Peasant Society. The folk punk group brings a hard edge to country and mountain melodies similar to the style of Devil Makes Three or Blind Melon. This energetic string filled band plays hardcore west coast mountain music that you’ll love.
“Flying my Sign” starts the album off strong with a rebellious spirit. “Old days” is one of my favorite tracks on the album with talented violin/ cello solos and melodies, and an upbeat and driving guitar rhythm that keeps the song moving. “Famalam ramble D Jam” is a great country ramble up there with The Yardbird’s “White Summer.” The jam has all the energy of a moonshine run, and will make you want to get a car airborne a la Dukes of Hazard or Steve Earle’s “Copperhead Road.” The track “Stormy Days” shows they can slow down the tempo and still keep their style. “Zoo” is a great piece of contemporary folk story telling. The lyrics are fun and the instrumental breaks are moody and unique. “Blujujamb”, is some shreddin guitar and fast banjo pickin that’s sure to get your feet moving. The recording is crisp so give this band some love and head on over to their Bandcamp. They have a playful sense of humor, that shows on their site. As always, stay tuned to SharksEatMeat for daily contemporary art and music news.
