Elizabethan Report, "Are you a Murder?"


From a moderate Utah culture known for clean cut faces and social graces, Elizabethan Report conversely has an unkept concern with their looks and concentrates on their sweaty sound which is splitting at the seams. 


Their new CD which poses the question "Are you a Murder?"  to a ravenous girlfriend in its second track cuts right to a raw thumping interlaced trio of drums, bass and guitar.


The chaos is controlled by well crafted wound up and loosened melodies that stain Tony Petersen's ornate illiterations of brooding lyrics. His velvety voice rises and swells with the infectious energy of the quartet.
