Those Darlins – Wild One EP

  • March 9, 2009

The Murfreesboro, TN trio Those Darlins cross punk rock and old-time country into a Carter-Family/Wanda Jackson-meets-the-Ramones sound. Their three song debut EP Wild One is a completely fulfilling and guilt-free indulgence in these dire times. The title track, “Wild One,” combines ’50s era country twang cheeky lyrics and vocals while the “Whole Damn Thing” is a kitschy romp about the band devouring an entire chicken while drunk. The closing song, “Snaggletooth Mama,” is a wry homage to Tennessee country livin’, featuring catchy guitar hooks and down-home hoots and hollers. The Wild One EP is infectiously fun – definitely keep an eye out for their full-length album this summer!
