The Village Voice recently said "The near-emo Dutch Kills shuffle between soft, pretty indie-pop and clamorous bloodletting." It's a bit of an exageration but not by much.
Bio / Background
Dutch Kills combines dreamy melodies with raw guitar power and commanding lyrics, creating dramatic indie rock. The Village Voice 'Choices' column recently noted that "the near-emo Dutch Kills shuffle between soft, pretty indie-pop and clamorous bloodletting." It's an exaggeration, but not by much.
Started as a singer-songwriter project by Nick Altebrando, DUTCH KILLS-who hail from Queens and Brooklyn-released their sophomore EP, Nothing Was Ever the Same on May 11th (Wordclock Records). It is the follow-up to their critically acclaimed EP Scale 300 Feet to the Inch. Like Scale..., Nothing Was Ever the Same is populated with a cast of identifiable characters. "I like the idea of songs where things happen," Altebrando says. "The narrator in 'Katherine' spends a good part of the song pleading for his life. The trucker in 'Semi' say he just wants to stay awake a little while longer, but you get the sense that he's on the edge of pitching himself off the road.
