| Saint Agnes - Merry Mother of God Go Round |
Release Date: 8th December 2016
London leather clad rockers Saint
Agnes have been building up a steady stream of excellent rock’n’roll singles
and ‘Merry Mother of God Go Round’ is the latest which is just as fine as all
the others. A squall of dirty (nay, filthy) guitars come rolling in like Royal
Blood being egged on by Jon Spencer and sewn together with a distorted
harmonica that sounds like sex would sound if it had a voice. The twin, male vs
female vocal is both aggressive and laced with sexual energy but then there is
the mellower mid-section that lulls you back in to the bedroom before your body
is slammed up against the wall in a way that is both exciting and terrifying. The
ending to this song is as brutal and heavy as anything I’ve heard this year but
damn it’s good. So very good.
