Des Ark is from Durham, NC. They were originally a two peice fronted by singer/guitarist Aimee Argote. This is their first album Loose Lips Sink Ships. They have a lot of other sort of different stuff, Aimee does alot of solo acoutic songs but this album is my favorite. Im not exactly sure how to describe this album's sound but here's an attempt- gritty, heavy, emotional, darkly melodic southern blues influenced garage punk. Well anyways, you need this shit so here it is.
