THE BROKEN HANDS – DARKSIDE

The Broken Hands are a four-piece NSW-based band who sound more like they were transported straight out of the British punk rock invasion of the late ’70s. So Far Away, the first track from their EP Darkside, is a perfect example. Their style is solidfied by second track Elvira – an ode to a bewitching and unattainable vixen.

Darkside and Sickman are pretty standard rock songs full of rough guitar riffs and wailing vocals.

This small collection of songs is a brief dip into the world of The Broken Hands, a band that does very well live. Unfortunately Darkside needs more to leave a lasting impression. (LL)
