Happy New Year!

What better way to start than with a new band. A good new band.

The Mutts.

They are a no-holds-barred rock band from Chicago melding growled vocals with dirty blues inspired riffs and a righteous anger that somehow reminds us of the Drive-By Truckers playing with MC5 and fronted by Tom Waits.

Check out the excellent fuzzed up, whiskey drenched Throwback and the hypnotically menacing Jessy – a guaranteed kill or cure for that New Year’s Eve hangover.
