The Dead Good - Thirteen Polaroids

Thirteen Polaroids is a self released EP on May 2013 by German-Italian band The Dead Good. Currently residing in LA. Members are Isabella Knight, Sonny Lanegan. Genre described as rock, alternative, noise and raw punk rock. 

 The first track is Junk Nation. The intro seems like it would be an industrial type of song but then heavy sludgy guitar riffs begin, you start to feel a heavy rock aspect. There are dual vocals on this composition and have a unique quality that immediately sticks in your mind. Isabella's voice reminds me early Lita Ford or maybe even a slight L7 style. Comparisons are slight, her voice has a certain vibe that's pleasing to the ears. Sonny's voice is a perfect match, when the two are joined you get a distinct quality that is in its own realm and style. "Saw, Drills, and Glue Guns", heavier guitar riffs on this one, catchy verses. The song crosses from hard rock to metal at certain measures. "Room 106", the arrangements of this song can appeal to a vast audience. Simple but very effective at its delivery. At times feels psychedelic in nature, I will have to say this is my favorite so far on the EP. "Crush", bass is a dominant instrument through out, mesmerizing and enthralling. "I Put A Spell On You", I get a sense of the Blues coming across in all its vibes. "Through My Bones', is the closing track, I would say I hear Nine Inch Nails influence in the opening riffs. I enjoy the way the guitar effects are layered on top of the measures at the right moments without going overboard. A great way to close this memorable trip.

 In conclusion, I was surprised at how well the vocals complimented each other. The music is catchy and can easily be digested in several genres (Rock, blues, metal, hard rock and pop). Being the debut EP, this duo seems to have a bright future ahead of them. I look forward to hearing more songs or even catching a live performance..

Exclusive interview with Spektrvm

Image
Greetings and please give a warm welcome to Spektrvm 1- Hello and welcome to Metal Music Midwest, first off, thanks for taking the time to do the interview, could you give our readers a brief description of the group? Where is the band from? The music of Greek metal group Spektrvm (pronounced ‘Spectrum’) spreads wide across the chromatic political, religious and many other themes. We are 5 different people, with 5 different musical tastes, and that always makes it interesting to see where the mix of ideas and styles will take us.   2- "Blood For Heaven" is the band's first full album, how long did it take to write? Ideas for the album had been forming since the early days it was formed back in 2016, but when we actually decided to write songs and create an almost concept album, the first half took about a year to form, and the other 5 songs, a little less than that. The songs were being tweaked up until the day of their final recording in 2020. Some changes were even made...

Was there a point early in you life that sparked your interest? Well… once I thought it would be a great idea to have some new profile pictures. So I went out to a cemetery with a good friend of mine to make some photographs. I soon recognized that it was great fun to pose and to “play” with the scenery. That’s why I’ve registered myself in a German model community and soon I got some offers for shootings. And here we are!   Model: Nox Misery- Make up & Styling: Nox Misery- Photographer: Maschka- © Nox Misery, Maschka 2- Your style is in underground, goth, and metal, was there an event or moment that made you decide on this style?
