Eight Rounds Rapid - Dostoyevsky

Review by Project Management Universidad Valencia

Eight Rounds Rapid's album Dostoyevsky is a raw and unapologetic take on punk rock. The band's gritty sound and aggressive vocals make for an intense listening experience that is not for the faint of heart.

The album's title track, "Dostoyevsky," sets the tone for the rest of the record with its driving rhythm and blistering guitar riffs. Other standout tracks include "Writeabout," which features a catchy chorus and a memorable guitar solo, and "I Like it," which showcases the band's ability to create a catchy melody while still maintaining their punk edge.

The lyrics on Dostoyevsky are introspective and often dark, exploring themes of isolation, addiction, and mental illness. Lead singer David Alexander's vocals are raw and emotional, adding to the intensity of the album.

About Eight Rounds Rapid

Hailing from Southend and rooted in the infamous Canvey Island RnB tradition, Eight Rounds Rapid channel the fervour of Dr Feelgood, Wire, Gang of Four and Public Image Limited with their gritty tales of the Essex underworld. The bands debut album gained excellent reviews from the likes of Uncut, who said, Edgy, drugged-up thug punk. Loss Leader is Thames Estuary crude given a vital contemporary twist. Invest now. Mojo gave the band a 4-star review and Classic Rock summed the band up: Thrashing the moody cut-and-shut Mk1 Capri of Essex geezer rock like they stole it. A welcome blast of no-frills, bullshit-free excitement that can only be deadly live. Eight Rounds Rapid supported Wilko Johnson on two major UK Tours, and have had airplay from Mark Radcliffe, Gary Crowley, Gideon Coe and Steve Lamacq. The bands songs are rooted in trad blues, but impulsive guitar from Simon Johnson (Wilkos son) and acerbic delivery from singer David Alexander make the act sound like Captain Beefheart, John Cooper Clarke and Mark E Smith ଁghting in a Southend bus depot. The line-up also features Jules Cooper and Lee Watkins . Everett True said, This is great. Art Brut meets ATV, with a touch of the old Wilkos. With a smattering of all those (rather scary) old rufଁans: The Inmates, Nine Below Zero, Dr Feelgood. All that crowd. But for Eight Rounds Rapid, its only ever been about music and storytelling.
