Born in the jungle, raised in the desert, and educated on the road as a session musician, Life Leone rolls all of his experiences together into a few confident guitar chords. His debut album, Comes Crashing In, does exactly that – fuzzed out guitars and drums charge their way through to-the-point arrangements, while it’s Life’s casual and catchy vocal delivery that manages to be the high point. Simultaneously understated and bombastic, with hints of QOTSA and BRMC, Dots & Dashes UK calls Life Leone “fleshy, thunderous sonic pulverization at its most invigorating.”
