Deap Vally: Sistrionix

Crochet-loving, fuzz-fuelled, riff-wielding LA scuzz-pop duo Deep Valley deliver their much anticipated debut album, and it’s a riotous slab of wax . Bursting at the seams with super-charged primal power and Stooges-infused punk swagger, Sistrionix is a seriously catchy record to boot with hooks by the bucketload and plenty of anthems for the post-riot grrrl generation (‘Walk Of Shame,’ ‘Bad For My Body’).
Musically indebted to 70s and 90s rock, Deep Valley’s sound is as subtle as a punch to the face and singer/guitarist Lindsay Troy’s howls are just the right side of unhinged – but that’s okay! Highlights include the ferocious ‘Gonna Make My Own Money’ and the sweet and tender (by their standards) album closer ‘Six Feet Under’.
