As years go by, I'm starting to really appreciate the Portland, OR music scene. I've been a huge fan of bands like Agalloch, The Decemberist, and Trees. And you can add Foxcore/punk band, destitute to that list.
For a while, their debut ep, "Left For Dead", has been playing in my car's CD player. I'm a huge fan of their Riot Grrl influence. Also love the raw/lo-fi production. It gives this ep some attitude. The first three tracks ("I Don't Want To Play With You Anymore" "Junkie For Jesus", and "Absence") are great. "Moral Decay" sounds like a good track, too. But the mix is a bit low. If they do a full-length, hopefully they'll turn it up a notch.
If you're a fan of the Riot Grrl scene during the 90's, you will totally love destitute. It's loud and kick arse. Just the way a bloke like myself loves it. Really looking forward to their next release. But I may have to wait awhile since they are in hiatus. Last time I checked, they got a new drummer. But until then, "Left For Dead" will be in repeat rotation in my car. Destitute gets "5 Hitlers Punched in the Face"
Like and buy some destitute merch.
