Rescate emotivo vol.11 - Helmet









"While nowhere near as intense as it’s predecessor, Betty includes a lot of experimentation within it, as the band’s jazz and funk influences become very noticeable in multiple tracks. For example, “Biscuits for Smut” is a fun number that makes you question whether or not it was made by the same band that did “In The Meantime”. Henry Bogdan’s bass is incredibly thick and funky, bouncing against the juicy guitars, adding a carefree-attitude to the track. The dynamics on some of the songs here are also worthy of mention, such as those to be found on “Milquetoast”. This track begins with the band’s trademark crunch, with John Stainer’s complex drum work acts as the foundations for Page Hamilton’s and then-newly recruited Rob Echeverria’s heavy guitar riffs. Then, out of the blue, the guitar's end, leaving behind Bogdan’s irresistible bass tone, layered with Hamilton’s echoing croons."
