Mongrel State: High Time, Stray Dogs, Quiero Volver и другие песни.
Produced by Gavin Glass, ‘Mestizo’ sees Mongrel State proudly wear their Americana hearts on their sleeves and let it all hang out making for a lively, entertaining listen for the most-part but not without moments of introspection such as the Morricone homage segue Quiero Volver in the album’s halfway point, and on closing track Rainy Day which plays out like a. gunslinger riding off into the sunset.
Mestizo is the highly anticipated debut album from Mongrel State, Americana/rock n’ rollers who have been lauded by critics ( Is there a better country rock band in Ireland? - Goldenplec) and fans alike for the last year or so. Known for their incendiary live shows, the band have brought all of their musical nous to bear on this work, creating a record that draws heavily on diverse influences such as stomping Southern Rock, Rockabilly & New Orleans Swing, mixing it up with a cinematic sensibility. The name of the album – meaning Mongrel in Spanish - also belies the latin origin of some.
Mongrel State are mongrel or mestizo by nature and by name. This four-piece Irish band features four nationalities (Irish, Italian, Spanish, Argentinian) and a rake of musical styles that conveniently fly under the flag of Americana. This is Mongrel State’s debut album but, as is clear from the raucous, kinetic sound, they have been playing live for some time. With their heart steeped in rockabilly and vintage rock’n’roll, they exude a compelling energy caught well by producer Gavin Glass
Ten Steps Ahead, 03:21.
Mongrel State is a four-piece band from Dublin with a sound that incorporates a wide sonic palette - from Rockabilly to Rock, latin grooves and Cinematic Western Scores. Aside from their unique songwriting, what really sets them apart is the fire, commitment and energy that goes into their live performances. A lively deposit on a promising future.
