Daniel Francis Doyle accompanies his own live-recorded guitar loops with powerfully tumbling drum beats, while belting out vocals through a headset microphone that clings on for dear life. With so many "one man bands" vying for your scant DIY dollars of late, it's hard to find one that actually pursues the idea beyond the realm of novelty. Doyle's intense live sets feature almost embarrassingly candid lyrical content combined with a voluminous guitar scratch that pushes the solo concept into a loud and uncomfortable place.
