Dimmer Switch- Not The Stereo-Type
by Tim Wenger
Dimmer Switch take fast alt-rock sound and mash it head on with punk rock guitar riffs, and heavy hitting drums on their new EP Not The Stereo-Type. The second song, “Mark My Word” starts out with a metal sounding guitar riff before settling into a more pop-punk sounding palm muted verse–a great example of the band’s style.
The overall sound of the record falls somewhere between Alkaline Trio and Foo Fighters, moving smoothly between radio-friendly punk rock and modern alternative. Dimmer Switch is a great example of the Best 303 Sounds family that they represent–a hard working band that is rapidly growing their fan base with an enthralling, catchy sound, and this EP is only going to help them continue to grow.
