When I was complaining about 8 songs in 37 minutes by Eskimo Baby, I didn't yet know what to expect from Taint: 9 songs in 66 minutes. Wow. That makes for an average song length of well over 7 minutes. Okay, song 9 is actually 2 songs and, including a three-minute break, even lasts 23 minutes, but still. Now to the essentials: The three musicians come from Wales, and if you look at the band photo, two-thirds of them have a preference for beards, and they have released their second album here with the esteemed Rise Above label. The band serves up a mix of rock, alternative, stoner, and who knows what else. The long songs tire me out, and the singer can be quite a screamer at times. The offered fare is also too slow for my taste. This album will surely win fans, but unfortunately not among scoundrels of my kind.
