Vic Du Monte's Persona Non Grata

Barons & Bankers

'Barons & Bankers' is a blow on those responsible for the world crisis, seen through the punk attitude and the anger of someone who grew up in garages. Even when this fourtet plays a ballad ('Truth and Consequence') there is an underlying angst, common in those who got the blues. Yet another strong feature of this record is post punk, delivered both in a visceral, heartfelt way as in the challanging and pounding 'Raising To The Round' and in a more intellectual Talking-Heads-like way in the groovy '700g box'. While the rock'n'roll suggestions in 'Running To The Moon' may heavily hint to The Clash, possibly mixed with a '50s style, in 'Vanished From The Scene' the band is let loose on a wild beat ride, with some very good blues in it.
