On April 14, at Slim's Downtown on South Wilmington Street, some serious rock n' roll was heard.
Raleigh band Left Outlet began the show around 10 o' clock to a highly receptive audience. The band plays Slim's regularly, and the crowd knows what to expect. They have a tight rhythm section with solid bass lines, great vocals with catchy lyrics, and a lead guitar that absolutely wails.
Dead Rabbits were up next, a two-piece band from Georgia with one guitar, one drum kit, and two vocalists. They play in a bluesy garage-rock style that is simplistic, yet that is its charm. The groove is easy to latch on to, and the sound is amazing.
I listened to the song you have posted above and catchy is definitely the word. I love it and I love the downtown area. I just might have to check them out the next time I'm down there : )
ReplyDeleteShows in the downtown area, especially Raleigh, usually seem to have a fairly healthy turnout. I think it's cool that Raleigh's music scene is active, because a lot of regions can't really say the same.
