| Turn to Dust |
Original. Talented. Passionate. When I hear those three words, I think of this band, Turn to Dust.
I had the pleasure of being able to see them perform last night at KC's Tap in Pawtucket, RI.
My duty as a blogger is to pick things apart and dissect them. That is what I was born to do, only with less blood and guts, and without a swarm of bees attacking me for killing their friend. And so, every time I am blogging something such as a band, I am looking for specific things, and offering creative advice. Let me be the first to tell you. There is nothing anyone could offer this band that they do not already have.
Xan has an extremely powerful voice with a childlike enthusiasm that no body can duplicate. Nils makes the guitar scream with Ron right along side him on bass. Lee is a unique character who can make ya laugh in a second, but can slam the skins with the force of thunder, and they all seem to be more than capable of being in the forefront and getting the audience engaged.
A lot of bands I have seen lately are cover bands. Turn to Dust did belt out their version of Pat Benatar's "Hell is For Children" which is probably the best cover of that song I have heard in a long time. Only Pat Benatar herself could have done it better.
The best thing about Turn to Dust is the originality. They will rock the house! But hey. Don't take my word for it. See for yourself: http://www.myspace.com/turntodustmusic
