Bang!

The killer reissue of the second album by Kill Devil Hills, <i>The Drought,</i> originally recorded in November 2005, where the band goes toward dirtier and rawer sounds. Limited edition of 500 copies. Here ́s the reissue of the impressive second album by Kill Devil Hills, where the band continues in the direction of their first work, "Heathen Songs", but adding dirtier nuances and rock. If in the first album we talked about Nick Cave and Hugo Race as mentionable influences, in this second one we can easily add The Beasts Of Bourbon to the list of influences on their sound, when listening to some of the rawest songs of it. 

This gang of animals from Perth, Australia, take their swampy folk-blues and take it to a new world of more extreme and wild sounds where melodies and violins create a wall of sound that involuntarily forces you to stand and listen. After their successful tours of Australia and America, The Kill Devil Hills released this album in which they showed you that they were not "the next big thing", they were really a great band with overwhelming live shows. A key band and a pillar of the new emerging and ardent scene that has once again made Australia a hotbed of creativity.
