AB: Another great post from our prairie brother, Aaron Scholz. Something a little different than what would normally be posted, but so rad!How do you record sweat? I don’t know, but Marvelous Darlings have done it. Live at Gales is a non-stop fuzzed out 22 minutes and 35 seconds of pissed off power-pop injected with a raw rock ‘n roll energy you only fantasized about your own band having during daydreams in front of the stereo. Full of strained vocals, luscious garage rock guitars and idiotic yelps from the crowd make this as close to an actual MD concert experience as a Saskatchewan resident will ever get.
The song writing is what really gets me about this band. Band leader Ben Cook (Fucked Up, Young Governor) does such a great job of writing varied songs within the genre, often stitching the tunes together with infectiously catchy leads, ensuring that fans of the genre will give Live at Gales repeated listens in order to relive brief moments of total pop bliss.Dig on this and then start a band of your own!
