The guitars rage and swing effortlessly between fiery grunge (‘Repo Man’) and fiery punk rock (‘Hired Gun’) and skewed sleaze surf (‘Echo’) and spiky goth (Day by Day). While the energy is raw and primitive, the compositions and the playing is anything but. That said, Dope Body grasp the power of straight ahead, driving rock, the potency of volume and speed. The percussion is the band’s real driving force.
They still manage to work in some strong melodies and powerhouse choruses and at times come on like The Ramones only with steroid-enhanced muscle. Cracking stuff.
