In an age of cut and paste, carbon copy "bad-ass" rock bands, it's refreshing to come across the real thing every once in a while. Following on from 2012's excellently grubby self-titled EP, The Black Bullets are back with Thirteens, a five track slice of dirt under your nails, rock debauchery.
The Southampton four piece, whilst looking like soap dodging miscreants, have actually become a very tight musical unit in the past 12 months. A full year's touring experience has turned the band into an eight legged, booze guzzling, thrill seeking machine with balls like watermelons and serious musical chops -- and it shows on EP opener "Thirteens". Like AC/DC's "It's A Long Way To The Top", the song is a road trip boogie of cramped vans, cheap beer, cheaper women and unwashed socks -- with shout along background vocals and everything turned up to 11. Think Supersuckers when they were good and you're just about bang on the money.
