Bees & Sawdust - Teething

 


I wouldn't have Teething down as an easy listen, but it is an incredible listen. Built around mesmerising memorable riffs, it draws influences from everywhere, Post Punk, Psych, Prog and more. It is wonderfully noisy. A little Radiohead feel at times.  

The fact that these were secondary school friends and are now at University makes this even more intriguing as you'd expect this to be by some gnarled journeymen who have joined together after various adventures in various bands.



The five piece from Galway offer up a type of Noise Rock that approaches Hard Rock and certainly Alt Rock, but those riffs are awesome and angular. It isn't for the faint hearted, but continued listening gets you hooked.

The Guitar sound is awesome and the album is much closer to Psych than you might imagine, particularly the vibe. It does get a bit shouty at times which suits the soundtrack, but is definitely something that few are doing at present. Open ears will be certainly rewarded.
