ESTRUS
This heavy hitting three piece, two four string guitars and one drummer, recorded "X Patriot" with Steve Albini in Electrical Audio, Chicago. They toured the UK last year, leaving minds blown and jaws agape at their blend of noise rock, lurching forth with a dark, distasteful scuzz rock. Sure there's some 70s rock in there but with a sound akin to Budgie as mauled by Killdozer and doused in a southern blues hell as often described by the likes of the Laughing Hyenas. To say this record is a hard rock record is to serve it up a supreme injustice, this is gothic horror dirge rock with a drunken drive!!!
This is The Mistreators' second full length, and their first for their new home Estrus. This Milwaukee quartet enlisted the production and recording skills of the esteemed Jim Diamond and his ghetto recorders to bring their diverse take on garage rock 'n' roll to fruition! Drawing upon influences like AC/DC, The Oblivians, Otis Redding, and Johnny Cash to create a blistering take on dirty rock 'n' roll. With guest back up vocals on a couple of tracks by the Come Ons' chanteuse Dianne Iovan, and some sax by Jim Diamond, The Mistreators add extra layers to their rock 'n' roll, and its all the more enjoyable for it!!
