Birdskulls "Good Enough" and "Sever" track Reviews


Birdskulls debut LP Trickle is coming out on the great Dog Knights Productions label on October 5th. The band has released two singles off the record and they are fantastic 90's influenced emo, grunge, pop goodies.

The first single they released is "Good Enough" and it's so good not just good enough. It has some heavy Nirvana influence, especially in the vocals. It's so nice. The riffs in this song are awesome and so fuzzy. Muff. "I don't want to go to bed" goes the chorus, even though dealing with a heavy heart and a rotten relationship is hard while awake. There is a little change up variation to the main chord progression towards the end that is really fun, and those little high notes on the guitar in the beginning is sweet.

"Sever" which was just released the other day, this is weird I know, but it, makes me think that if Blink 182 was around in the early 90's this is what they would sound like, this song. I dig it a lot. It's only a part of the song that I feel this way, but still cool. It's right after the into piece. Think about it, you'll see it. Anyways, this one is very vocal rich and the guitar creates this great atmosphere of nice underneath. The bass is really driving along with some great steady drums. "I'm alright."

Pre-orders are up now for Trickle here.
