Slow Riot - City Of Culture (Straight Lines Are Fine)

| Slow Riot - City Of Culture |
Release Date: 10th July 2015
I went to Limerick once and was
told by the people I was there to see that I shouldn't hang around and should
just get on the first bus out of there. Seems a little at odds, then, that trio
Slow Riot (who hail from Limerick) have a single by the name of 'City Of
Culture' but then again they make yoghurt out of culture don't they? The song
itself is a sped up race through city streets at night with a bass line that
doesn't just throb but actually spits blood from the seams. The moody, Editors-esque
vocals and guitars give this a classy feel but it's hard to get away from that
bass line and the crashing drums that follow you round the room like the eyes
of locals when you walk in to a small town bar on your own on a Saturday night.
Menacing, malevolent and bristling with paranoid intent, Slow Riot have
captured the essence of a walk home alone along dark streets in the early hours
but I'll leave it up to you decide whether you will get home safe or not....
