THE PEELERS
– Let’s Detonate (Beer Can Records) Rock n’ roll punk at it’s finest, I’d say… Yup, that’s how I’d describe The Peelers, a band that hails from Chicago, IL, and is not afraid to step it up and get to down business (musically, that is). With such colourful, raw vocals, abrasive guitars and powerful drums, this band holds nothing back. I actually found it quite reminiscent of some punk from the late 70’s, with their in your face, devil-may-care attitude. I really must say that I enjoyed this disc quite thoroughly. The Peelers seem to have a genuine energy about them, and though I do think that energy might translate better in a live show, unfortunately this band doesn’t look little it’ll be heading out to the winter wonderland that is Edmonton anytime soon, so I guess I’ll just have to settle for their CD. – Bryana Robinson
