| The Reveurs - Control |
Release Date: 18th November 2014
Right from the get-go there's a
euphoric, defiant feel to this Mancunian bands music that peaks your interest
in a way the Killers or Foo Fighters manage with unnerving regularity. The new
single 'Control' is a pile driver of a tune that doesn't let up for a second as
the guitars snake through the air and the drums push ever onwards. That said,
there is something of the cheesy about this that sits somewhere between
Nickleback and those nu-metal bands that went a bit bland like Papa Roach or
Linkin Park. A saving grace is that this single has a B-side in 'Saint Marie'
which opens with a nice, popping bass line but is then joined by the sort of
guitars that you would expect from a teenage metal band trying to impress the
local emo girls. There are huge US influences at here which is fine but somehow
this just doesn't sound believable with the Yankunian accent effected atop the
music. Close but no cigar, as they say.
