iTunes Review
It all started with a Birthday Party cover, the cobweb-clearing post-punk of “Marry Me (Lie Lie).” Ever since then, Daughters have been on a collision course with themselves, shedding the blunt trauma approach of their first few releases for a sucker punch rhythm section and wildly expressive riffs, delivered at a feverish clip right alongside Alexis Marshall’s spot-on portrayal of a depraved preacher man. Considering his deceivingly simple start as a grindcore vocalist, it’s thrilling to see the guy seize every song like he does the stage — as some bizarre blend of Elvis, David Yow and Nick Cave. A logical extension of their last LP, Hell Songs, this is one of the year’s most rewarding highway-to-hell listens. We’re talking a filler-free record that reveals some serious subtleties on proper headphones, from the cymbal-rush climax of “The Dead Singer” to the hasty handclaps and crystalized chords of “The Unattractive, Portable Head.”
Customer Reviews
Experimentation At Its Best
The Daughters are one of those bands that are insanely talented, yet love to create music for such a distinct group of people. They are also a band which is not worried about how they may be perceived, or at least they act that way. When the vocalist of Daughters decided to change his style from the hardcore/progressive/metal/grind norm into a lackadaisical, monotonous, drunk-elvis, they probably lost some fans. I can say that not only did their music improve in listenability, technicality, and damn near every other aspect, but "Hell Songs" was one of the most creative, awe-inspiring albums I have ever had the pleasure of forcing into my ears; that is until Daughters released this album. This self-titled album may not be the fastest, most in your face, hardest album to date, but it is definitely the most raw, refined, and greatest example of what Daughters are trying to accomplish. Every song oozes creative freedom, raw natural talent, and a groove that just cannot be found elsewhere. This self-titled endeavor is the most fun I have had while listening to a new album in many years, and even better is that you can feel the band enjoying this music. While it still may be over some heads, those who are seeking Daughters should love this, and hopefully some more people will stumble across this wonderful piece of art. My only complaint, if you could call it that, is the raw, deep, somewhat nasty recording quality. While it does add a really grunge atmosphere to the album, I can't help but want to hear each instrument in all of its glory, well-refined. But then again, I'm an idiot. Buy this album.
Less noodle, more groove
It's like the Jesus Lizard with whammy pedals. Solid album.
F-U-N to listen to
Considering how difficult it must've been to follow up the amazing Hell Songs disc, this is definately a masterpiece. Marshall's vocals set the tone just right for the complete nuttiness that ensues from the rhythm section as they execute their aural onslaught. When he sings "... I see you watching from the corner of your eye, yeah, If you get closer to me... I won't mind" in "Theatre Goer" you can't help but wear a grin from ear to ear. This record is just FUN to listen to.
