Friday is already an amazing day for new music however, when it’s a Friday and we get a new EP from Bristol (UK ) based rock trio Krooked Tongue ….. that brings Friday to whole new level. We are beyond thrilled and excited to check out Krooked Tongue’s new EP “Deathproof “

You can listen to “Deathproof” on Spotify Here and on Apple Music Here

Krooked Tongue are a band that , with every new release they are more impressive. It is almost like Krooked Tongue is a character in a video game who keeps getting stronger and stronger with each new level .

We were immediately mesmerized by the opening track “Backseat Therapy” Krooked Tongue really shines brightly on this track. We knew this track was good, when were singing the chorus while we were in line at the bank .

The second track “Velociraptor “ is a straight up classic blues rock stomp that not only rocks but is just so freaking cool . Krooked Tongue are proving that they are the de facto masters of cool and “Velociraptor “ cements that claim big time .

The third track on the EP “Lupines” is absolute sonic perfection. From our original review of “Lupines”.. Krooked Tongue are sonic masters of the highest order . Oli Rainsford commands the low sounds in “Lupines” as if he has the ability to cause seismic activity. Guitarist Dan Smith brings “Lupines “ alive with his melodic energy that gives the track it’s deep soul. If Smith is the soul then the absolute heart is drummer Harry Pritchard truly the god of thunder . In the center of the sonic brilliance Oli Rainsford gives stunning vocal performance that is simply breathtaking.”

The final track on the EP is the title track “Deathproof” is an absolutely stunningly brilliant track . Krooked Tongue definitely saved the best for last .

Deathproof spearheads the frustration of an ever changing world with an explosive message that cries out with a big ‘fuck you’ to the everyday rhetoric and media influence.

“‘Deathproof’ is the sort of tune that feels like the climax of our newer tunes. It’s got that ‘grand finale’ energy. Lyrically, it ruminates on my outlook on the state of the world currently. Bad people disguised as good people, normal people being used and pitted against each other. The instinct to know there’s something, many things off kilter with the direction modern society is heading. I think it relates to people. If nothing else, we hope this EP helps to feed into your feelings, or helps you forget about all that noise and just enjoy the music”, explains vocalist and lyricist Oli Rainsford.

We have said it before and will say it again … Krooked Tongue is a band who are evolving and growing right in front of our eyes…. And we can’t wait to see what’s next .
