A veteran three-piece, Back to Blonde?s guitar driven indie-rock lies in an area somewhere between the crunching sounds of distortion and the desperate swoons of lead singer/guitarist, Joe Rogers. With Brooklyn native Pat Malone combining efforts with drummer Christian Linsey, the layered rhythms of the bass and drums offer a pedestal for the trio?s melodies to launch themselves into intimate, and often times dark areas of narrative introspection. True, their songs sometimes reach moments of clarity, but such epiphanies are quickly crushed beneath intense swells of volume and sonic upheaval. Ultimately, one is left to wonder what truth is left after the dust has cleared.
Back to Blonde's is touring the East Coast in support of their first full-length LP, "Swim West," produced by Adam Lasus (Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Yo La Tengo, Versus) which is already making noise in New York and nationwide.
