The Blind Herd - Ever Been Taught (mp3)
A new band to emerge from that Julia Farr-Aves-Bearded Gypsy Band clan of Adelaide bands, the ones who hold underground Alleyway shows and the Grace Emily above all others, The Blind Herd offer a somewhat bleaker perspective to the shirtless dancing of their comrades.
In some respects it covers similar territory to Jack Ladder’s recent record ‘Hurtsville’ with its sense of gothic Australiana, encapsulating that intangibly bleak desolation with which we suburbanites contemplate the dead heart, all gravitating around the powerful presence of a deep voiced, charismatic frontman. While Ladder’s use of 80’s synth and big gated snare drum to achieve this effect, The Blind Herd lean towards country and folk, with slide guitar and fiddle positioning frontman Frank Lloyd’s songs somewhere between Bob Dylan, Nick Cave and a more traditional, less cinematic Jae Laffer.
Good fun!
