New Music from Grassfight
New York trio Grassfight get a lot of nods for their kinship to Nick Cave, having solely to do with the vocals present in their music. But, as the release of their new Icon EP 2 comes this week, I’m more focused on the music they’re creating. The work on the high-hat is solid, and the cascading guitars that continuously assault your ears are precisely what I want an indie rock band to sound like nowadays. There’s not a lot of frills, no added nuance, just straightforward rock n’ roll. If you’re enjoying what you hear, keep your eyes out for the group, as we’re sure to get more from them soon…or so we hope.
