  • Description

    Four years have gone by since Nikki, Jessi and Kelley Darlin spat in their palms and slapped hands in a three-way promise that would become Those Darlins. Since then, they've broken hearts and broken bones, while honing their chops and gaining a lifetime of experiences through endless touring. Screws Get Loose is the first release to show off drummer Linwood Regensburg's abilities as a songwriter. Each song bears the scars of the highs and lows they've soldiered through together on the road, accentuating the realities of growing up in a rock and roll band. The band re-enlisted Jeff Curtin (Small Black) and headed to Atlanta to record Screws Get Loose with engineer Ed Rawls (Black Lips, Jacuzzi Boys). While the bands country punk nature is still evident, the Southern roots that shine through are more in line with dirty Southern garage rock. Haunting and and hook-laden numbers tussle with the confessional weight of other songs. Stylistically, the band has created a range of sounds to songs reminiscent of Spector's summery girl pop to fully realized stoner-jam to lessons on the slippery nature of money sung in an infestation of gang vocals. These songs show that life on the road is no place for the faint of heart. So, naturally songs take shape with bold narratives, strong voices and full-bodied performances. Maturity and experience combine to open up wholly new dimensions for Those Darlins. But that doesn't mean they have forsaken the spirit of fun and frivolity that has come to define them.
