DETROIT COBRAS,THE - Tied & True (Sealed) (LP)

Originally released in April 2007, with Tried and True The Detroit Cobras practically created a new genre for themselves, delivering the sonic goods to back up some seriously supernatural soulful vocal gifts. Stretching out in the studio like never before and including contributions from top line players like Greg Cartwright, the Cobras created a versatile and formidable wall of Spector sound. One of the earliest groups to emerge from the Detroit garage rock scene, The Detroit Cobras developed a reputation as the Midwest's finest (and most distinctive) cover band - while the band members devoted themselves to performing other people's material rather than recycling established hits, The Detroit Cobras dug deep into the well of vintage R&B and primitive rock and roll sides, building an individual identity out of lost classics from the past which they modified to fit their swaggering aural personality.
