Album review: Dex Romweber Duo, "
Ruins of Berlin" (2009)
Without Dexter Romweber, there very likely would not be a
Jack White or
White Stripes.
Dex and sister Sara on drums belt out garagey, bluesy, anthemic, roots-inspired rockabilly and surf tunes. He's also the former frontman of surf-rock-garage-punk combo The Flat Duo Jets.
"Ruins of Berlin" is old-school and beautiful in the way inner-city streets gleam after a rain, and it features pristine vocals from
Neko Case and
Cat Power, too.
Songs for a mixtape: "Love Letters," "Ruins of Berlin," "Lookout."
