Music Review: Those Darlins - Those Darlins - Page 3


“DUI Or Die” was more of a tale of an alcohol infused evening out all ending with sirens and jail bars as well as blaming to booze.  “Drunk driving, I’m guilty, and I’m blaming the booze” pretty much summed up the song in a comical way also giving hint to all the ladies who want to avoid DUIs but going home with someone and letting them drive.

Even though some of the songs suggest a country rock like style, they add much more rock and roll and punk rock finesse giving for a fiercer sound.  Having the girls split up vocal duties just keeps their songs that much more interesting.  Their debut album is an instant classic to my ears and I am sure it will be for many as all of the songs are very catchy, musically and lyrically.  This is not a band you will forget about after just one album.  These girls are going places.

Seeing them live is a whole experience in its own.  Big crowds or small crowds these girls play their hearts out, drink the big boy drinks, and will force you to have a good time.  When they take the stage one might think they do not have the capabilities that make up what Those Darlins are all about – loud music and good times.  The moment the guitars are strummed and the vocals start it’s clear that something fun is about to happen.
