| Released June 2012 |
Atlanta’s Douchemaster Records has made a name for itself by releasing
a strong selection of garage-rockin’ and power-poppin’ records over the last
several years. ‘Blood Bleeds’ by
the band Vincas is the latest DMR release and it’s a bit of a departure from
their usual sounds. Vincas, out of
Athens, GA, fits a bit more easily under the realm of post-punk. ‘Blood Bleeds’ is a very galloping and
rhythmic album with scathing guitar work and cavernous vocals. Think Birthday Party or Jesus Lizard
and you’d be getting close. The
one thing that makes this album a nice new addition for DMR is that it still
feels like a garage record. ‘Blood
Bleeds’ is like a post-punk party as opposed to a funeral. Vincas does an excellent job stretching
out their influences while still maintaining an aura of just plugging in and
letting the beer and sweat fly. It’s
a bit reminiscent of mid-era Rye Coalition although I think Vincas has more
focus early on. I am def looking
forward to what Vincas will come up with next, but until then I’ll be happily
spinning their current album.
