Album Review: DOPE BODY - Crack A Light
In a world full of bland, cookie-cutter music, DOPE BODY's latest offering, "Crack A Light," is like a breath of fresh air. This Baltimore-based band has always been known for their experimental sound and boundary-pushing lyrics, and they certainly don't disappoint with this release.
The album kicks off with the explosive track "Electric Yellow," a chaotic blend of screeching guitars and pounding drums that sets the tone for the rest of the record. From there, DOPE BODY takes listeners on a wild ride through a sonic landscape that is equal parts punk rock and avant-garde art.
One of the highlights of the album is the track "Spectral Blame," which features a mesmerizing vocal performance from frontman Andrew Laumann. His unique voice soars over a cacophony of distorted guitars and pounding drums, creating a sound that is both haunting and exhilarating.
Overall, "Crack A Light" is a bold and adventurous album that showcases DOPE BODY's uncanny ability to push the boundaries of what is considered conventional music. If you're a fan of bands like Sonic Youth or Fugazi, then this album is definitely worth a listen. So crack open a cold one, turn up the volume, and let DOPE BODY take you on a musical journey like no other. Cheers!
