The music world can be big and confusing, however The People Electric make good rock n’ roll seem simple. Your head nods because the music is catchy and cool, toes start tapping from the infectious rhythms, and you just might get the urge to throw a TV out of a hotel window. The People Electric blend generous layers of early punk with voluptuous heavy metal and some fat riff work. Your ears will feel like they are in a whirling hurricane inferno of rock and elegantly orchestrated chaos. One of the many things that makes their music so appealing is the way they combine simple straight forward instrumentals with raw passion that oozes through your speakers, headphones, or whatever listening device you happen to have. It’s that raw passion that rattles your teeth and makes you believe the music. I had the pleasure of sitting down and listening to the tracks they currently have up on Soundcloud and I was sold. In particular I enjoyed the dirty, nasty, sleazy downright reckless track “Detroit Hooker Fight” (10 bonus points for a killer track name!). The People Electric are slinging the kind of honest rock n’ roll the world is deeply in need of. You can check them out live this Saturday the 19th at Club 21 for the release of their new 7” record. – Cory Heunnekens
