Out of Basel, Switzerland comes MIDNIGHT DEADBEATS, and Dance Til You die is their 2nd album so far of this trio that consists of Guitarist/Vocalist Mono Mojo, drummer Jukka Altermatt and bassist Harald Binder. 9 songs are included on the vinyl edition of their new album, and musically speaking it is a classic rock and roll driven music that reminds me a bit of TURBONEGRO, THE HELLACOPTERS and HARDCORE SUPERSTAR, FOO FIGHTERS so basically this is rather cool raw dirty mean sleazy rock and roll the way it needs to be played.
Loud and proud, with still catchy melodies, but always with a nasty uptempo hard-hitting bass/guitar driven rocksound that can be heard right from the start during the strong Come On. There’s no looking back, because the band continues this hard rock and roll sound during the rest of this recommended album, with as other highlights Garbage Guy (a stoner rock influenced tune that even recalls OZZY fronted BLACK SABBATH during their heydays of the 1970s), Mad and Dance.
There are some Punk/Hardcore influences as well to be heard, so enough to discover on this album. Without a doubt, this kinda music sounds at best on a shiny vinyl; edition, and therefore go grab yourself a copy if any of the aforementioned bands is right up your alley, because MIDNIGHT DEADBEATS do their thing very well!
