Description

When your head is hitting the ground; when you're picking gravel from
your knees; when you've spent the night gathering up your clothes, Exile on Main Street and Brown Album LPs she threw out the window onto the lawn the night before--then you're ready for Deadstring Brothers.Starving Winter Report,
Deadstring Brothers’ debut Bloodshot release, pulses with exuberant
arrangements painted with the nostalgic call of the Rhodes piano,
Stax-worthy horns and lonesome-prairie pedal steel. Frontman Kurt
Maschke's warm and rolling lyrics and rock chanteuse Masha Marijieh's
sultry vocals are the spine of the band; sustaining vocal harmonies so
sweet and inseverable a crowbar couldn't pry them loose. It's an album
with an undeniable flair that cries out for some big speakers, a
Detroit rag top with a case of Stroh's in the trunk, and a reason to
get good and GONE.Littered with themes of dragged-out battles both won and lost, Deadstring Brothers
have come out the other side all the wiser, with a record powerful
enough to pierce your heart after the first listen. Sharp,
nicotine-tinged odes teeter with the right amount of nostalgic spirit
and rock sentiment (check out that excellent cover of the Band's
"Get Up Jake" for ample proof); hearkens to a time well before we felt
compelled to add the "classic" in front of "rock." The 'String Bros
show it ain't dead.(From Bloodshot Records)
