Cheap Meat Suits - Dark City

Review by Eric Gornicki

Cheap Meat Suits' latest album, Dark City, is a haunting and atmospheric journey that takes listeners on a dark and brooding journey through the underbelly of the city. The band's signature blend of blues, rock, and punk is on full display here, with driving rhythms and searing guitar riffs that are sure to get heads nodding and feet tapping.

The album's opening track, "Blood on the Streets," sets the tone for the rest of the album with its gritty, hard-hitting sound and lyrics that paint a vivid picture of life in the city. From there, the band takes listeners on a journey through the dark alleys and backstreets of Dark City, with songs like "Broken Dreams" and "Nightmare Alley" showcasing the band's ability to craft powerful, emotionally charged music.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Devil's Playground," a haunting ballad that showcases the band's softer side. The song's sparse instrumentation and haunting vocals create a sense of intimacy and vulnerability that is both beautiful and haunting.

Summary by Eric Gornicki

Dark City is a powerful and compelling album that showcases Cheap Meat Suits' unique sound and style. Fans of blues, rock, and punk will find plenty to love here, and newcomers to the band will be drawn in by the album's brooding atmosphere and powerful songwriting. Highly recommended.
