The debut album from DE KEEFMEN highlights a killer batch of songs filled with
great grungy guitar riffs with, of course, the essential hint of the Dutch sixties
Nederbiet sound, all bolstered by the excellent raw soul voice of singer Henri.
This is an authentic sounding collection of tracks that sounds like a long-lost
classic, with influences ranging from soulful and moody Otis Redding inspired beat
tunes through to Pacific North West garage-punk screamers. Along with those
sixties vibes the album is also at times reminiscent of bands like Dead Moon and
the Wipers. And they're making Boston Paul happy with a Minutemen cover too.
The gig-going public of the Netherlands voted their stage show at the VERA venue
in Groningen as one of the best of 2009 but as well as being a great live act they
are able to back it up with the sheer quality of their songwriting and tight
performances in the studio.
This is one of those albums that will be propped up in front of your record player
(or CD player) for a long time to come as you will be eager to listen to it again and
again. This is surely yet another future classic from Dirty Water.
