Girl at the Rock Shows

I have another repeat offender for you! Okay, that makes it sound like a bad thing, and I promise I don’t mean it that way, but sometimes bands come across my desk and, without even listening to their track, I know it’s one that I will love just based on everything I had heard from the band previously. That was the case when “Failure to Thrive (Glyphosate)” from Fight Back Mountain hit my desk and I was right about loving it.

The first thing that hits in the song is the guitar, but it’s not your standard guitar. There’s something distorted about it, but I’m not talking about fuzzy distortion. It’s an intro that you just have to hear for yourself, and once you do, it will surely get you hooked on this track. One of the things I have always loved about Fight Back Mountain is the grit in the vocals and how, although definitely grittier than gritty, there’s still an undeniable sense of emotion that comes through with every word of every track, and “Failure to Thrive (Glyphosate) is no exception. It’s a little Dillinger Four with the raspiness of Red City Radio and all tied up in a bow of skate punk leaning sensibilities that reminded me of Banner Pilot. Long story short, this song is absolutely amazing and more than worth your time this morning.
