BLOOD ON THE WALL “Depending on which song you listen to, Blood on the Wall’s music can make you feel like a kid cranked on caffeine or a kid who just chugged his first beer. Combine those feelings together with the nervous excitement of listening to records in your bedroom for the first time, and you start to get the overall feeling.” - Tokion Blood On The Wall is the sound of a couch being tossed from the second story to thunderous applause. The feeling that one gets when you have finished off the last of the tequila and it’s on to the beer. That tinge of sadness late into the evening right before the dawn is about to break and the regrets and hopes of your life merge with first chirps of the birds starting their day. This three piece consisting of Courtney and Brad Shanks, yes they are really brother and sister, with Miggy Littleton hitting the skins are attuned to the mysteries of music. And how it can catalyze ones mood from from a stupor to where you can’t stop your feet and your hair is flaying in rhythm to the beat. Rock with heart that takes no prisoners. BOTW will sweep you away on a sonic cyclone and you won’t be missing Kansas after you are swept along with them. Blood On The Wall’s second record is, as the name might suggest, Awesomer. Recorded under the watchful eye of producer Nicholas Vernhes Fiery Furnaces, Black Dice, Silver Jews) they run from their heaviest song to date “Stoner Jam”, out of the pop anthem “Mary Susan” and into the quick shredding of “Hey Hey” to end in your arms with “Going To Heaven.” all the while they stick to the hooks and the playful dynamic that has made them the rock enchanters of the NYC music scene. |
