The Last - S/T (Pre-Release CD)
(S/R - 2010)
An incredible duo based down in Port Charlotte, Florida who have 2 lead vocalists, in Haydee Pomar (also on Bass) and Don E. Bonzi who takes control of guitar and drum arrangment duties.
They fall somewhere in between Pop and Metal and although this sounds lazily cliche of me, they really have thier own style and sound going on and from these old ears somewhere between Talking Heads and Blondie (with opener 'Colours' being a good example) but also have elements of Led Zeppelin in '5 Stars' - a number that also reminds me of that 60's classic 'The House Of The Rising Sun'.
The 5th and closing number of the CD is as though Robert Plant is doing a duet with Haydee - it's very tribal of Native American stlye atmosphere and also of Indian sounds as well - striking, almost fearful and extremely haunting throughout and reminds me of 'Going To California' & 'Peter Gabriel's 'Biko' re-arranged wih different words out on the desert plains far away from any civilisation to speak of.
