the ettes' first single release with sympathy for the record industry. the trio features toughness with a twang from lindsay "coco" hames, punk beat invasion from maria "poni" silver and melodic bass on the backbeat from jeremy "jem" cohen. drawn from the ettes' forthcoming sympathy album release, recorded at toerag studios in london with the fabled liam watson, "dead and gone" brings you a tick-tocking beat attack with fuzzed out guitars and driving bass, leaving spaces in between for coco's strong and seductive vocal lure.
.. THE ETTES ARE MAGNET MAGAZINE'S BAND TO WATCH!
As fetching as they are ferocious, L.A.’s Ettes can’t help it: power garage is part of their DNA. Think Sonics/Yardbirds, New York Dolls/Runaways – or a distaff Reigning Sound. Formed in ’04 by singer/guitarist Lindsay “Coco” Hames, the trio offered up a remarkable personal article of faith by self-financing a trip to England’s Toe Rag Studios to record with White Stripes/Billy Childish cohort Liam Watson before they even had a record deal. The sonic and emotional yield, dare we say it, is primal, from the locomotive pileup of “It Ain’t You” and the swaggering Nancy Sinatra-on-fuzz of “Alley Cat” to the towering Phil Spector wall o’ sound that’s “Beggars” and an actual Reigning Sound cover, the churning “We Repel Each Other.” In song after song Hames peels away layers of feminine vulnerability; abetted by drummer Maria “Poni” Silver and bassist Jeremy “Jem” Cohen, though, she’s utterly liberated. With Shake The Dust, the Ettes announce a titular manifesto as gleefully unsubtle, and memorable, as a Kick Out The Jams or a Shake Some Action. And while the band’s busy shaking the dust – lord, do they ever, live -- you’ll be shaking your ass. [Sympathy, www.sympathyrecords.com] -- Fred Mills
