Like the social protests of Arcade Fire and Hank Williams III, Dear Comrade aren’t content to air their grievances against acoustic instruments and sentimental conclusions. This is a band has serious stadium ambitions. A larger-than-life diatribe against injustice everywhere, this group will make you grab pitchforks and shout the message from the rooftops. Singers Sam Quartin and Arthur Kremer work out their issues in burners ‘Basketcase’ and ‘Wolf’ off their debut ‘All Wisdom is Gone.’ – Mike Levine @Goldnuggets
