Release Date: 7th October 2013
Looking at the choice quotes on
Whales In Cubicles' press release the following comparison has already been
made by more weighty publications than this humble blog but there is no
escaping it; the Lon don trio have got some serious 90s rock influences. 'Wax
& Feathers', a song that draws heavily on the Icarus legend, is steeped in
bands like Headswim, My Vitriol, Feeder, Redwood, Addict, Warm Jets and so many
others that, if I were to mention them all, you would have a list of a good 15%
of my record collection. The soaring vocals, the distorted layers of guitars,
the pounding drums and the slacker moans where a guitar would have been in the
80s all make this a welcome slab of nostalgia rock and, unlike many of the
recent harks back to the old days, this is one that I am all for. Bring me
more!
