Play 90 second soundbite of 'Pull Through' @ 'CD quality'
The Drone Rebels keep it simple and mean; there's no over-done multi-dubs, nothing to speak of in the way of studio enhancement, just honest-to-goodness rock'n'punk that sounds as if it comes straight from the heart. And, The Drone Rebels definitely make sure you don't nod off when their music is playing - these guys are hard to sit still to!! With incessant riffs and fills from the two guitars, beautifully proportioned bass and solid, punctuative percussion, The Drone Rebels lay down a pretty formidable backdrop that somehow still allows plenty of room for the vocals to shine through - their music gets under yer skin and makes ya itch!!
I like the honesty of The Drone Rebels, the don't pretend to be anything they're not and they don't push the boat out with unnecessary fx or over-clever arrangements - The Drone Rebels just play it bright and loud and let the inherent simplicity of their music carry the weight. And, although there's a certain attitude that comes through with their music, The Drone Rebels don't sound as if they are trying to preach to anyone about anything - they just sound like they're a bunch of like-minded rock musicians who write and play observational commentaries on life as they see it and just enjoy what they're doing.
With the six tracks on offer here it's quite clear that The Drone Rebels have got it pretty much sorted - they're on the rockin' side of pop'n'punk and play with a great unity and self-belief - The Drone Rebels just effortlessly churn it all out with nicely controlled aggression and well matured venom. A tidy little demo then - a genuine taster of what The Drone Rebels are all about which should serve the guys extremely well as a promotional tool.
