Little Death (6)

Little Death, the debut album of the eponymous band, was recorded between huffs of desperately needed air conditioning in the New Orleans summer of 2019. At that time the band had been playing together for a few months, but the songs had been accumulating for over ten years. Songs of heartache, desperation and existential frustration from vocalist and guitar player, Willy, on acoustic guitar were projected through an electric prism by Dizzy's thunderous backbeat, Switch's atmospheric lead-guitar and backing vocals, and former-bassist Bob's steady low end. The resulting sound is reflective of each band members' varied tastes and musical gamuts but also their shared love of rock ‘n’ roll. And though the songs are bleak and seemingly pessimistic, perhaps some affirmation was fleetingly found in the joy of singing, playing, and recording them.
