Spotlight On: DRE CARLIN

After all that noisy tech-metal in the last post, here’s a healthy switching of the gears. DRE CARLIN describes himself as featuring “straight-forward acoustic guitars with punk influenced flourishes”. A four song EP has just been posted on Bandcamp, which includes an AT THE DRIVE-IN cover (“Cosmonaut”). As for comparisons, I kinda hear THE PALE and some early BRIGHT EYES. Carlin’s voice has a bit of trembling to it, but in a convincing and not fake manner. Check it out.
