Brimstone Howl has released their second album full of quick songs that pack a dirty punch (12 of them, to be exact). Clocking in at 34 minutes overall, the songs reference all sorts of American and British music, from blues to rockabilly to punk. The fuzzed out guitars are their specialty, and scratchy recording adds to the garage feel. Picture The Animals on “In the Valley,” or the swampy blues on “Luck of the Spade,” or Dylanesque harmonica on “Bad Seed,” or 50s sounding rockabilly in “Red Glare,” “One Quick Minute” and “I’m a Man.” And if you can imagine further, you would hear a wired Johnny Cash on “Tomahawk” (and, true to their name, lots of howling on “Cyclone Boy”). Throw in a little Cramps or even Gun Club (their admitted influences) and you have the complete picture. Exhilarating but a little scary, these Nebraska boys deliver a record worthy of their name.
