Essex / Baltimore, Maryland two piece garage punk duo, The Dead Ringers, conjure up the spirits of dead 50’s rebels without a cause (or maybe not) but there is a hint of 50’s / 60’s torture rock in their garage punk. The big two man wave of sound does feel a bit Phil Spector-esque with surf punk washing over. It is called Salt from their “Dull Life” EP and it is bitter and caustic (and sweet).

The Dead Ringers are Aaron Donahue (guitars, bass, synth, vox) and Jason “Geezus” Kendall (drums, synth, vox).
