The Great UnwashedThe Great Unwashed [EP]
Self-Released [2009]
Fire Drill Review:
One time I saw a band perform in the basement of a bank with their amps on 10 and a handful of local kids going crazy. It was one of the most rocking shows I have seen and listening to The Great Unwashed reminds me a lot of that night. The trio from New York City have a very rough rock thing going on with a lead guitar and vocal style much like a Hüsker Dü, Dinosaur Jr. or early Replacements. It is this sound that on first listen may not be the best vocal, the best drum or best guitar, but with all the components combined The Great Unwashed have put out a solid 4 track EP that shows promise for the next step.
Key Track: "Winter Classic"
