Bass + Drum - Guitar = all Rock. MR RUSSIA is a combo of relentless rhythm, solid bass lines and cocky vocals one could describe as the bastard offspring of Iggy Pop and The White Stripes. Excluding the usual guitar from the rock n' roll line-up, MR RUSSIA has a brash, tactless sound all their own. The Chicagofourpiece welcomes easy comparisons to Shellac and Death from Above 1979, as well as drawing influences from hard-to-pinpoint sources such as XTC and Magazine. With a reputation for furious, sweat soaked live shows, the ten tracks on Teething reflect their energetic and spastic nature. MR RUSSIA has shared the stage with acts such as Reverend Horton Heat, Girl In A Coma, Von Iva, Thrones (Earth/Melvins), Two Ton Boa, 31 Knots, Earl Greyhound and have been featured along with the Arcade Fire and the Dresden Dolls on the FTC Records' David Bowie tribute album 2. Contamination as well as the lead track on Eye for an Eye – a tribute to Nick Cave. 更多>>
