Raleigh, N.C. rockers Thirsty Curses are kicking and taking names on their new single, "Buried by the Wave." The song is taken from their album "Music Is a Scam" and prepares you for the deep end with churning guitars, slapping drums, and firebrand vocals from frontman Wilson Getchell.
"Buried by the Wave" meets your eyes and snatches you by the collar. Except the band barrels ahead with reckless urgency, funneling a cocktail of punk, alt-country angst, and old-school classic rock edge into something that, at the same time, feels unhinged and entirely in control. It's noisy, punchy, and cathartic, a call to arms for anyone drowning under life's deluge.
Wilson Getchell's delivery is ferocious, desperate, and deeply human. Bolstered by Clayton Herring's rumbling bass and Jeremiah Rhodes's unrelenting drums, the track bristles with a spirit of defiance, a refusal to go under, no matter how high the tide may get.
Thirsty Curses can shape chaos into something that feels so undeniably them. There's a wildness to this track, but it's the kind of wild that's purposeful, like a bar fight with poetry muttering under its breath. "Buried by the Wave" isn't a song but a purge. It is the sound of a band that knows the world is on fire and has decided to dance through the smoke.
