Garage rockers Damn Vandals have released a new EP. The Beautiful Mind is filled with four raw borderline glam rock songs. The London band is still quite fond of old school echo, giving their songs a Seventies swagger that never gets old.
Stand-out track is He Pulls A Knife with a chugging back beat egging on the vocals and a lead guitar that will make Chris Isaac's skin crawl. Trouble With Jesus is a down-and-dirty rocker, with all the needles in the red. Recommended if you like the Buzzcocks, Pavement and early Roxy Music.
