DESCRIPTION:
I have known Bruce from The Doom Buggies since I was a teenager. I've always regarded him as a talented musician. Over the years, we have bumped into eachother at various concerts and events, and I was always glad to see him and catch up on life, wives, kids, mutual friends, and mostly music. When I started doing this show, I wanted to get Bruce and his band on for an episode, we played a little email tag.... and finally, after 39 shows, we got his band in the studio. This is a good one. The Doom Buggies are tight, and they serve up a mix of catchy rock with the precision that only a veteran band can deliver. They played a memorable set of guitar powered Boston rock and roll. The songs are well crafted with great hooks. The band attacks each song with passion. The Doom Buggies give props to the Boston rock legacy by covering songs by local legends The Bags and The Outlets. They also tear through an amped up version of the Beach Boys classic "Girl don't tell me" .. but this is no cover band. These guys can climb into your head with some great original ear candy too. Their songs are powered by a ferocious twin guitar assault, and a rhythem section that hits harder than "Live at Leeds" The Doom Buggies are a force to be reckoned with, and they did not let me down with this performance. I am glad to have captured this band, and I'm glad to have a friend like Bruce.
