Hot Wives - Eat Your Enemies
Label: Blood Drunk
Year: 2016
Looking for affirmation: do I like this?
I think I do. It seems like I've been enjoying it now for the last little while.
Kind of reminds me of another Atlanta band (Hot Wives are from Atlanta, sorry if I didn't mention that earlier) The Tom Collins in that they take a noise rock/grunge template, but then run it through some straight rock-n-roll swagger (but less Led Zeppelin worship). Sort of like something that might have come out of New York City in the independent music feeding frenzy of 1993; a Surgery with bits of Barkmarket and bits of Action Swingers, and an FM radio in the background playing Billy Squire. I mean, Mudhoney gets away with going straight up rock sleaze sometimes, why can't Hot Wives?
Pretty sure that the more I listen, the more I really like it. But you listen, and you tell me if it's good.

This is good.
ReplyDeleteReal good.
It's shambling, shuffling, and rocking the FUCK OUT.
Thank you for pointing to this, bought immediately, made my Sunday.
