Aug 08 : "Bob Mundon" - Brontide

New Music / Freshly Written & Recently Posted

Playing right before The Mystery Lights at Mercury Lounge was UK band "Brontide". Unlike The Mystery Lights, which seemed to have zeroed in on and were experts in garage rock, Brontide was more eclectic. Not just from song to song, but the styles and genres seemed to be all over the place ... in each song.

I was very impressed by the band's range and mastery of different styles. However, I felt that, while each song seemed to showcase a wide array of styles, there wasn't too much cohesiveness. How was it all being pulled together?

The music the band has on their various web pages does not display as sharply the contrasts of temperaments that I heard at the live show. Maybe it was just the fact that the show was live. But, of the various samples they have posted, the track "Bob Mundon" comes most closely to illustrating my point about the wide ranges.

Current song playing right here on my blog page is "Bob Mundon" by UK band Brontide.
