The Mountain
Posted on Wednesday, July 01st
The Heartless Bastards new release "The Mountain" has this Cinncinati/Dayton based band climbing up and over, representing the "birth place of aviation" well. Songs build while vocals soar with a constant heart filled drone, backed by a band of bastards of a by gone grunge era. Erika Wennerstrom paints stark realities with a tough vulnerable melody, married to music that was made for her meaningful monotone. Simplicity makes every song available, but multiple listening will have you changing your favorite tune. Traditional Ohio river mountain music swims in "So Quiet" and "Had to Go", while "Whichtypoo" and "Nothing Seems The Same" build into an intense current, churning downstream to the delta blues. Heartless they are not. Bastards, I didn't do that much research. But, if you remember Ohio as the "heart of it all" then these Heartless Bastards represent well. - Jason Philabaum
