"Dracula Zombie USA" is a first release from this interesting group. I believe they are from New York- and for some reason this makes sense. It's very hard to pin down what type of music they make. There is a definite use of samples on the cd. Many of the songs have a funk/rock groove along with some chanted/shouted lyrics that are hard to figure out. Some of the instrumental breaks seem to recall the no-wave sound coming out of New York during the post-punk era.
The first song "The Summer Jam" opens with samples/scratches followed by a nice bass line. The song adds synth/guitar along with shouted/repeated lyrics. There really isn't the verse/chorus thing going on. Pretty much a jam with lyrics. The fourth song "I Need I Need Money Money Money" has some nice angular guitar with the lyrics "I want nothing to do" and "I dig money money money". Whatever turns you on! Sort of punky with a no wave break. The most satisfying song was "Thomas Window Paine". It had a chorus!
"Dracula Zombie USA" is either a long ep or a short cd. The seven cuts clock in at a little over twenty-nine minutes. The group definitely plays their instruments well and the sound of the cd is interesting. I kind of wish they had little more form to the songs.
An interesting start from a band that defies categories.
