Single: Durty Mick - Heavy Metal

Durty Mick - Heavy Metal


Last November we shared the intriguing single 'Beige Slave' by Dublin DIY act Durty Mick, latest single 'Heavy Metal' is an equally beguiling affair. Once again the 19 year-old is armed merely with mic & laptop, yet produces a surprisingly polished sound. I wouldn't want any 'enhancements' made here, they would only serve to detract from the mellow jangling flow of the track, Owen Murphy's pessimistic vocal tone is unintentionally engaging, tying the entire mood of 'Heavy Metal' together, a satirical scoff at gym bunnies and the obsessive bubble they inhabit.
