Crass Mammoth – Dear Violet

Georgia band Crass Mammoth preview “Dear Violet” from their forthcoming EP “Ef En Eu”. “Dear Violet” both melodically and instrumentally is very raw & immediate, visceral. Each strum, each tap of the fingerboard, each chord shape movement sucks straight to your inside. There’s an obvious bit of influence here in the tune especially of 90’s bands like Alice in Chains & Stone Temple Pilots; almost (and we mean this in a very complimentary way) to the extent that “Dear Violet” is a lost hit from the alt rock radio era. The “Ef En Eu” EP is out June 4th.
