Dirty Shirt - Get Your Dose Now!
Dirty Shirt is a metal band from Romania. They have recently come to my attention thanks to their album Get Your Dose Now!, thanks to the radio emission Noise Pollution.
This album blends Nu Metal with Folk Metal. I have to say this works quite well. I do not know much about Romanian folk music, but it definitely appears on Get Your Dose Now!. The folk aspect is well integrated with the metal part. Folk Metal is not new, but it still amazes me how well folk and metal can blend together.
This is a very lively album. I haven't paid that much attention to the lyrics. However, I understand it's full of humour. From the cover art to the album title, it's clear that they're talking about a burning topic : the Covid-19 pandemic. While I may have missed some subtelty, I think it's quite clear that they incite people to get vaccinated, which is a positive message. The way it's done is still light and fun and I'm happy with it !
