Liverpool Academy, 22nd October 2013
Deaf Havana are a band that have been through quite a remarkable metamorphosis in the last few years. Initially being spewed out of a scene full of pretty haircuts and tight jeans but not much else, the band made a radical departure from the formulaic sing-scream formula of “emo” rock with their sophomore release 'Fools and Worthless Liars'. Their new effort, 'Old Souls', takes their evolution one step further. It's like someone locked the band in a musical Guantanamo Bay, burnt all their tight shirts, threw away their My Chemical Romance CDs and blared a continuous stream of Bruce Springsteen and classic rock into their cells until they started dressing like farmers.
