Boy from the Crowd is a London-based duo who plays a
brand of rock that pulls from punk, blues, and the garage rock of the '70s.
In their own words, "One of the things that
makes rock ’n’ roll great is its little imperfections..." They bring this
into their own music with feedback and distortion, giving a roughness to the
sound.
That may be best heard in "All I Need",
but they have also recorded a single of "Johnny B. Goode". Hearing
how they handle such a familiar tune gives a good idea of the band's aesthetic.
It would still not be complete without listening to
"Where the Bees Come to Die", an instrumental inspired by the
environment and man's relationship with it. By eliminating they typically
hard-edged vocals, it shows a different side of the band.
