Release Date: 9th June 2014
Derby quintet have a new single
out in a few days and they went the extra mile to get the artwork sorted out by
buying and then torching Ecto-1 from Ghostbusters, now that's commitment. The
song itself, 'Relic', starts off as something between a Paul McCartney album
track and a Paul Weller single which doesn't inspire a great deal of enthusiasm
for the plodding piano melody and lazily strummed guitar. However, half way through this tune there is a
subtle little instrumental breakdown and the tone changes with the piano riff
taking on some more minor notes and the guitar getting a bit more bite to it.
This entirely changes the feel of the song and takes it in a new direction that
is not what I expected but is really pretty good. There are ideas here and an
ability to craft a song so I'd definitely be interested in hearing more of
those ideas in the form of songs. Intrigued? You betcha.
