Review:
Now this is what sleaze rock is all about! Backwash has taken cues from the likes of AC/DC, The Four Horsemen and Beautiful Creatures to release a debut EP that should restore everyone’s faith in rock’n’roll. The music is just as dirty and nasty as the band name implies, and not only do they Feel Rock – they proceed to hammer it down your throat!

  “Highroller’ starts off with a shit-kicking backbeat that leads into a raunchy riff reminiscent of Junkyard. I haven’t had a song impress me this much since I reviewed Stampede Queen awhile back. “Kill Thrill” is an over-the-top number that is unrelenting in its delivery. The EP wraps up with “I’ve Done It”, another song with a barroom boogie bottom-end overlapped with gritty vocals.

  Backwash is showing other young upstarts – and even seasoned professionals – how rock should be played. I can’t wait to hear a full-length album, but in the meantime this EP and their website (www.backwash.ch) will have to do. If anyone tells you rock is dead, crank this up and tell them to fuck off.
