Run Dust
Run Dust aka Ronald Doussier is a new project coming straight from the lowlands of Northern Germany. The music is pure hammer with beguiling vocals direct, devilish and disgusting. Hardly navel gazing but real, punchy, direct. All killing. Harkens back to Cab Voltaire's more violent output, but R. Dust throws his own pisstake on it. Like a hard german funk-krautbox with a very short late 80s Glenn Danzig spitting hell through a buttcrusher. Treble, not bass. Releases on Karl Schmidt Verlag and upcoming ep entitled 'Decency Rally' on Manchester, UK's Tesla Tapes.
