Wet Paint - It Rots

Do we really need another samey indie band on the music scene? It seems the answer is yes, we do, as Wet Paint prepare to tour with Bloc Party after releasing their debut album. At first, the strong guitar sound and rugged voiced front man seemed a winning combination. If only it hadn’t been done so many times before, I would have been much more impressed. After listening to the whole album, I found myself less excited as each song played, sounding more and more like a poor man’s Cribs with very droned, similar note. Every song’s guitar riffs are so alike, it’s hard to distinguish one from another after a while. I think the answer is definitely no; we don’t need to hear another band like this on the music scene. Time for some originality, please.
