Absorbing sporatic elements from the last century and constructing them in a way in which they feel fits, this duo of Scoudin Dolle and Michael Sell, blend fragments of decades past into a future sound that encapsulates their influences as well as their personal expression.Whether it's a bouncy motownesque bassline, a punchy synth riff, an overdriven garagey guitar, or a dancey high-hat.The Tarnished Hearts blend rock sensibilities with nuance laden backdrops.
No, thank you. Really nice list of influences you got there. Of course that doesn't mean anything if you don't have good songs. But fortunately you do.
