We Are Harlot "Nails" It

I've heard reference to life being like a banister we all slide down. Hard rock possibly soon to be juggernaut We Are Harlot's "Dancing On Nails" leaves me in a similar physical point of reference. We are on some impressive lust cruise. The tour guide is named Danny Worsnop. The boy sure can talk about his urges. Nothing goes better with that than a side order of guitar as cooked up by Jeff George. Although the pole reversing guitar solo doesn't come until well into the song when it does put its boots up on your coffee table it knows which names to take and which butts to kick. Danny glides along Jeff's excellent in sync exhibitionism. I did bring up matters carnal so time to revisit what I was driving at. The first stanza would appear to be assuming form of a woman too enrapturing to be believed. Never has a good morning good bye been characterized as not worth messing with. Furthermore Danny's bones appear to have deserted him. Moving right along to the undressing her with his eyes part of the fantasy this female has something worth exploring. Can't imagine what that might be (wink wink). In the second full stanza Danny leaves nothing to the imagination in his hormonal homage to how she plays sinful tricks with his mind. The smell of sex brings out the beast within. She and only she can grant him raw seduction. I never heard "I like the way you sway" as lyrical content before. Sort of cornball but I appreciate the rhyme attempt, half-assed or otherwise. Drummer Bruno Agra puts on a stick smacking clinic. He's as nimble on drums as Jeff on guitar. Call it music to hastily rip panties off to. I emphasize hastily because "Dancing On Nails" doesn't even reach the 3 minute mark. This band does make commendable use of the alloted time. Danny's lost in libido and we've got a telescope zoom lens to live vicariously through the action he's getting. No beat goes undelivered. No vivid image is left ignored. She runs him right off the rails, and he can't stop lapping it up. There isn't a clearly defined bridge where Jeff could strut his stuff. Usually it's the halfway mark where the guitar ace tosses off the shackles and lets you know he means business. Under one minute left smacks of late to the party but at least he showed up. For all intents and purposes We Are Harlot is a dyed in the wool supergroup. Organizer Danny Worsnop came to us from Asking Alexandria, Jeff George from Sebastian Bach, bassist Brian Weaver from Silvertide, and drummer Bruno Agra from Revolution Renaissance. They've hit their stride early in the game. Amps plugged in they waste no momentum firing off licks and painting female form so with such arousal that not only is it guaranteed to make your mouth water, your nose and eyes may moisten up too. "Dancing On Nails" hammers home its sultry sentiments in no bones about it fashion. So what if they make drawing a diagram a moot point. The boys have chops bound to serve them well.
