Drunkdriver - Born Pregnant

There are records that are noisy and then there are records that manage to go past that and take on a whole other level of disgusting. I would imagine there are also very few areas where an adjective like “disgusting” could be considered a positive. However, this is just the case with the debut LP Born Pregnant from the Brooklyn, NY trio of Drunkdriver. There is absolutely nothing pretty about Born Pregnant and I think fans of noise-rock or just noise in general will be fully appreciative of that. Just released on the solid Parts Unknown label, Born Pregnant from start to finish lays waste to ear drums, stereo speakers, and most importantly any sort of fidelity. This is a blown out affair that often times has the sound quality akin to a YouTube video that someone has uploaded from a cheap camera phone. However, the only difference here is that you can actually hear the separate parts of the band and it’s probably less tinny and twenty times more powerful than most of those shitty videos anyway. Seriously, why do people even bother uploading those anyway?

Featuring nothing but guitar, drums, and a singer who spits out equally venomous and vile lyrics, the whole package is basically a match made in heaven for those that can’t really get enough of bands like Rusted Shut, Cherubs, and Royal Trux. I imagine you’ll either be really glad you listened to this or musically offended. Either way, that probably is a compliment to Drunkdriver.
