Loud And Angry The Giraffes Bring Brooklyn Fire To Failing Administrations With Pipes

Hitting us square in the ears with a ferocious and wild protest tune, Brooklyn’s The Giraffes tell the world about the Flint Water Crisis. Pipes is a song that spells it out in emotional detail so that everyone can learn from these mistakes and be inspired to be better next time. Many towns in the US, especially in rural areas, rely on antiquated underground infrastructure. These pipes tend to leak and allow various seepages into the supply. It’s a common issue when old machines break down, not having the ability to fix them is the real problem. It seems that in Flint Michigan, this is exactly what happened, and no one seemed to care. I’m almost willing to write a song myself, I think we all know that feeling of despair. Let’s leave it to the professionals this time, here is The Giraffes.  
 
A rush of feedback and distortion wails as the drummer kicks off the music. A punky snare-driven rhythm hammers down as the guitars pulsate with funky timings and kinetic chord choices. A shouted vocal section takes control, smashing through the sounds with a rhythmic and Rage Against The Machine style insistency, gruff and emotive lines keep us fixated. The grunge guitar sound leaps around like a frantic fish on a line as the persistent music sprints onward through the brambles and into the beyond.
