I’ve read a lot of band introductions in my time. Some are utterly forgettable. Others are immediately captivating like this one: “Don’t Turn Your Fucking Back On Me is a riotous 90 seconds of glorious, tightly wound rock n roll, taking pot shots at the corrupt politicians that deign to believe they lead us.” That is how The Pulsebeats (from Santander, Spain) introduced its three-song EP.

Let’s just say that riotous is a great word to describe the first track of this EP. Take some loud guitar, add a bass line that would fit just as nicely in a rockabilly song, and some drums that will get your feet tapping. Then add some shouted vocals that call out politicians, and what you’ve got is one riotous song that begs to be blared out of windows and sung at the top of your lungs. Not to mention a song that should be played at political speeches everywhere.

If anything, “White Little Horse” is just as much of a sonic punch as the first track. This is a good example of how a song can sound retro and modern simultaneously. The band manages to incorporate some trashy 60s guitar sounds into it while still making it sound like a modern song. Also, there is a bass solo in this song that will rumble your guy.

This EP is only eight minutes long, but these guys pack a lot of rock n roll into eight minutes. There’s no messing around. These guys get right to the rockin’, and blast it for a couple minutes before the song comes to an end. If you like hard-hitting rock n roll, check out The Pulsebeats. Don’t Turn Your Fucking Back on Me is available now on Bandcamp.
