STAGS – SINGLE REVIEW

Stags – Where Only God Knows
Stags - Where Only God Knows

Release Date:

London Blues-Rock outfit Stags have a certain shaky, rambling dissonance about them on this track which is instantly appealing. ‘Where Only God Knows’ reminds me of the Treetop Flyers but with more edge or Midlake but with more darkness and both of those are very good things. The blues ramble is punctuated with little Edge-esque guitar chimes and flicks that act as rain dripping through the rusty roof of the shack before that humming organ lays a blanket on your shoulders and that bass throws a new log on the fire. There is comfort to be found in the cracks and creaks of a song like this and sometimes a little comfort is good for the soul.
