Violent Soho — Waco


I Oh You · SideOneDummy | discogs.com
Blunt force trauma meets sharp, incisive wit


· · ·

The occasional acerbic, astringent turn of phrase, tactically deployed, is a vital resource in the arsenal of any decent rock band. Typically, these are mixed in with and spread out across rather less weapons-grade material. Violent Soho refuse to observe this tradition.

Tongues firmly planted in cheeks and amps twisted all the way to eleven, they opt for a constant stream of witticisms underlaid by chugging, yowling power riffs. Few can match the breakneck pace at which Violent Soho live their lives.
