Les Doux is a three-piece screamo band from Hattiesburg, Mississippi. They've been around since 2009, and released their self-titled EP during the first quarter of 2010. 'Dialects' was released last December and contains four interconnected songs which is basically about the perspective of a person involved in 'the story of a son who abandoned his family and/or home'. The story of the tracks in this EP kinda reminds me of 'The Prodigal Son'. From the opening guitar riff of the first song, 'Interrogative', you know that this band is precised in delivering their music. No frills, just pure emotional expressiveness. It was then followed by a slow yet heavy song entitled 'Declarative'. Third song, 'Exclamatory', has some upbeat guitar riffs and irregular drum patterns. 'Imperative', the last track, has to be my favorite. It has a good gang vocals during the middle part and it leaves you with a mellow down instrumental groove. The vocals remind me of Defeater and Modern Life Is War. If you like your music emotional and insightful, then you better check this out.
"You put this distance between us
You must remember,
Don't ever forget
A fathers love
will last you through death.." - Imperative
