SINGLE REVIEW: Thirsty Curses - Bombs Away
With ‘Bombs Away,’ Thirsty Curses return with a blast of punk fury that’s impossible to ignore. This isn’t just a song; it’s an eruption of frustration, a call to arms against ideological complacency. The driving rhythm section pounds beneath a swirl of guitars that seem to tear through the air, their chaos reflecting the track’s rebellious spirit.
Wilson Getchell’s vocals are sharp, biting, and full of conviction as he takes aim at the conformist crowd, the “cosplaying” artists who mindlessly follow the latest trends. There’s an anger here, but it’s not just for the sake of noise—it’s an earnest desire to break free from the crowd and reject the ideological rigidity that so often feels suffocating.
The guitars tear through the track with a deliciously reckless abandon, adding layers of swirling dissonance that somehow make perfect sense in the context of the song’s message. The guest appearance from Kelley Otwell only heightens the track’s energy, giving it a sharper edge and extra punch.
‘Bombs Away’ is an anthem of defiance, a rallying cry for anyone tired of the noise that passes for authenticity these days. It’s an exhilarating listen that promises even bigger things from Thirsty Curses in the near future. If this is a glimpse into their forthcoming album Music is a Scam, then we’re in for a wild ride.
