Dixie
I can't remember for the life of me why I
bought this one. I seem to recall thinking that someone from
another band I listened to was somehow related to Avail, but
that apparently isn't the case. The title Dixie is
misleading, so don't come looking for any country fried rock
here. Instead, there's an album filled with thrash, skate punk.
It's not incredibly melodic, but is energetic and the singing
is clear and set forward in the mix (which is always a sticking
point for me in some punk stuff). Yeah, nobody's gonna sell
their home and follow these guys around the country based
on this album, but they do have the thrash tearjerker "Beliefs
Pile" and a very Killdozer version
of John Cougar's "Pink Houses." |
