DRUNK DAD:
Noise/Sludge Quartet�s EP Is The Eolian Empire�s Next
Conquest
In a constant barrage
of new noise from Portland-based D.I.Y. noisemongers Eolian Empire, the label�s
next conquest comes by way of the filthifying new 12� from local metalworkers DRUNK DAD.
If
they weren't such dirty fuckers they'd be one of the town's shining success
stories of unrelenting hard work and dedication: in a surprisingly short time DRUNK DAD went from
favorite-band-shirts-on-their-hearts-on-their-sleeves to a unique and dynamic
fusion of the heavy, the noisy, and the aggro, with a healthy dose of high
drama, as they consistently churn out some of the most devastating live sets
Portland has seen in years. Complex but in-your-face arrangements, push-pull
duel-guitar interplay, searing behind-the-head leads, heavy motherfucking bass,
and hard-hitting, tight, technical traps with dynamic, disturbing vocals to hold
it all together evolves to ethical scumbaggery at its
finest.
Morbid
Reality,
the
first vinyl release from Portlandian shitstarters DRUNK DAD, merges off-kilter
sludge/noise the Pacific Northwest perpetuates so well into a drugged-out but
aggro vibe; elements of scathing crust-ish degenerate punk brutality of El Dopa
or Dystopia are cold-filtered with slow-motion acerbic sludge basslines and
noxious riffage with a post-Melvins experimental vibe.
Eolian
Empire will drop the four-song Morbid
Reality via 12� vinyl and digital download on June 11th. In the meantime, DRUNK DAD were recently caught
intoxicating the public via Eolian�s massive KEEP OUR HEADS Portland underground
compilation alongside twenty-five more of the city�s finest filthriffing acts.
Get wrecked with their pungent �S.O.U.� anthem from the comp http://digital.eolianempire.com/track/s-o-u" rel="nofollow - .
Following
their spot on one of the Eolian Empire KEEP OUR HEADS record release shows over
the weekend, DRUNK DAD have the
coolers loaded with frothy ammo as they plan on stumbling south across
California this week, with shows booked in Eureka, Oakland and a happy-hour
double in San Francisco. They also just booked a hometown record release show at
Portland�s Ash Street Saloon with labelmates Diesto on June 7th, with much more
public drunkenness to be had in the Summer months.
