New Brutarians - "Delinquent Things"


The New Brutarians' summer of singles continues with the release of "Delinquent Things" — a hip-shaking, balls-out glam rocker. Adam T. sticks to the lead singer role on this recording, and he's joined by Billy Summer on guitar, Famous George on bass, Alan MP from The Juvenile Wrecks on lead guitar, producer Robbie Rist on drums & keys, Ronnie Dee on sax, and Roxx Gang front-man Kevin Steele (making his first public appearance in nearly a decade) on backing vocals. What a lineup that is, and you can definitely feel the party atmosphere on this track. The New Bruts promised us some bigger-sounding rock 'n' roll this summer, and clearly they are delivering. "Delinquent Things" has the DNA of the Stones, Dolls, and Dramarama coursing through its veins, but it also has that distinctive Adam T. quality in the songwriting and vocal delivery. And lyrically, this is brilliant stuff — the kind of song that manages to be memorable & poetic without being the least bit subtle. All in all, this is the perfect summertime rocker for all of you who aspire to stay up all night breaking all the rules. The digital release is live now; vinyl will be coming out on Sioux!
