MP3 The Dutchess & the Duke - "Hands"
Posted by Eric Grandy on Thu, Aug 27, 2009 at 10:28 AM
Yesterday, Hardly Art posted the first song to be released from the Dutchess & the Duke's forthcoming sophomore album, Sunset / Sunrise. It's called "Hands," and it's slower than some of their "campfire-punk" numbers, but with a bigger, broader electric guitar sound and smart touches of organ and percussion. It's dark, dimly lit stuff, and it's good (full disclosure: the D&D hasn't always done it for me, but this track seems pretty promising). Here it is:

Slower = not awesome. I like the campfire punk vibe of their faster songs. I hope they don't start sounding like a total '60s Woodstock band, because they sure do on this song.
