The six finish DAMN SEAGULLS have made a great third record. HUNTING SEASON offers a lot of melodies, Indie sound, Pop-atmosphere and the punky and dirty voice of their singer whichmakes their tracks a little dirty too.
HUNTING SEASON sounds downright good and sets the band apart from all the mainstream-indie-crap. The guys rock and move through darker fields and get a little bit of sun, just like all the Scandinavian bands do.
Each real Indy-pop-rock fan should go hunting with the DAMN SEAGULLS, because something will be tracked down and felled.
