A Review

It was a really cool
pleasure to listen to Migrations by The Duhks. I had heard of them
but had never really listened to them before, so this was a whole new
experience. And what an impressive collection of songs, musicianship, and
all-around coolness in acoustic music. I know, I keep using the word
cool, but take a look at the Duhks. From their very appearance, the
average person on the street would never expect to hear the word
acoustic associated with this tattooed, long-haired, sort of Bohemian
looking group. The vocals are tight. The playing clear and precise. And,
actually, they do rock, but in an unplugged way. And the songs on
Migrations seem to fit into a certain theme dealing with life, death,
and other such issues. So keep it up Duhks! For the uninitiated, do not
judge this book by its cover.
