Here's A Recent Review Yup This Is Diesel Witch. If You Haven't Heard Of Them Before Don't Worry Short Of That ONE Gig I Caught Of Theirs Waaay Back In August 2008 I'd Barely Heard Of Them Either! They Rarely Perform Live At Least Not That I'm EVER Aware Of Thanks In No Small Part To The Fact They're Utterly Crap At Promoting Themselves Only To Be Made All The More Annoying As A "live Band" When You Finally DO Catch A Gig Of Theirs Only To Discover They're Nothing Short Of Brilliant.. FUUUCK OFF!! Yup I Shit You Not Diesel Witch Are Just One Of Those Chance Few Discoveries That Not Only Reaffirms Your Faith In Just How Brilliant The Adelaide Scene Can Be When It Aspires To Something Greater But Also Provides Damning Evidence For Why It'll Never Amount To Anything Outside Of A Small Circle Of Scene Geeks Because Nobody Ever Fucking Knows ANYTHING About Them Before It's Too Late And Seriously People Still Wonder Why I Write This Blog? . To Explain Picture A 60's Garage Rock Revivalist Band Along The Lines Of The Black Lips Eddy Current Suppression Ring The Fearless Vampire Killers Or The Novocaines Only A Whole Lot More Ecclectic And Creative. No Really Calling Them "garage Rock" Is Simply Too Limiting. Think Snowman Style Surf Guitars And Film Noir Slow Jams That Wouldn't Sound Out Of Place In A David Lynch Movie. Think Of All The Screaming Intensity Of The Libertines Or The Vines. Weirder Still Think Of That Bizarre "country Twang" That Only A Band Like The Pixies Could Possibly Pull Off Mixed With Nirvana's "Incesticide". It's All There Swirling In A Playful Primordial Of Howling Feedback Distorted Riffs Extended Messy Jams And Instrument Swapping Between Guitar And Drums. I Mean There's Just So Much Colour And Vitality In All This Chaos In All This Tuneful Fuzz Reigned In So Artfully In Every Song It Absolutely Boggles The Mind.. I CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF IT! And I'm Not The Only One Blown Away By It Either. Moments Into Their Set In Walks Alex Rajkowski From The Shiny Brights Just Before His DJ Set Outside.. Pfft He Totally Bugs Out Jaw Hits The Floor And He Tells Me "you Know What? THIS Is The Band Modular Should Have Picked Instead Of Tame Impala.. FUCKING HELL!!". And As Much As I Dig Tame Impala Short Of All The Bogans They Seem To Be Attracting Of Late I Dare Say The Rat Bastard Is Right! Diesel Witch Are SO Fucking Genius It Actually Pisses Me Off They're NOT "big" Yet. They're Complete Fucking Unknowns When They Should Be Out There KILLING THOUSANDS Or At Least Three Hundred At Jive . Fuck Damn! You Totally Gotta Get In On This Duuude I Swear Before They Invariably Break Up In Six Months Time. Diesel Witch? No Shit You'll TOTALLY Thank Me Later! read less
