A Finnish quintet forming in 2011 and releasing their self-titled debut, Seed Husk crank out 10 tracks of alternative rock with grunge influences, bringing back the spirit of America during the early 1990’s. Hooky, infectious guitar interplay and soulful vocal melodies along with a jumpy, energetic rhythm section allow "Overstay" and "Scavengers" to seep seamlessly into the brain, giving off a lot of vibes from Pearl Jam and the Screaming Trees to Bush and even a little of that jagged early U2 buzz.
Unafraid to use acoustic guitars or swirling electric effects for texture, the punchy snare gives "Saigon" an ominous doom touch to start. Seed Husk inject pop sensibilities without being overtly commercial – their ideas are firm and abilities showcase the passion and belief for their rock leanings. Great entertainment for sure – and not typical of what is expected from this style.
