Died Pretty - Using My Gills As A Roadmap
Review by Mohammed Hersi
Died Pretty's album Using My Gills As A Roadmap showcases the band's unique blend of rock and roll, post-punk, and psychedelic influences. The album features 11 tracks that are both haunting and beautiful, with each song telling a different story.
The opening track, "Sweetheart," sets the tone for the album with its driving rhythm and catchy guitar riffs. The album then moves into the more introspective "Godbless," which features haunting vocals and a dreamy guitar melody.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "D.C." which features a driving rhythm section and a catchy chorus that will have listeners singing along. Other highlights include "Caressing Swine" and "The Love Song."
Throughout the album, Died Pretty showcases their ability to blend different genres and create a sound that is uniquely their own. The band's intricate guitar work and poetic lyrics are complemented by the powerful vocals of lead singer Ron Peno.
