…dEUS debut album remastered and added with B-sides and rarities.
 About the only thing wrong with dEUS’ full-length debut is that the band put its best foot forward right at the start with the great “Suds & Soda.” A tense, energetic rip with Klaas Janzoons’ violin the final touch that sends everything over the top, it has all the wired energy of early-’90s rock, but with its own arty edge. The only thing quite like it might have been PJ Harvey’s early efforts, but with more feedback throughout the mix and a fine organ break. From that great start, the five-piece spent its time exploring its own interesting rock zone, referencing back to classic rock influences and jazz pioneers as much as any of its many frazzled contemporaries.
