Dark Horses – XIII (Tricky Spirits Records)

| Dark Horses - XIII |
Release Date: 24th November 2017
Dark Horses are a collective
hell-bent on creating darkness but with a good groove at the heart of it so, y’know,
it’s forgivable. ‘XIII’ (13 for the kids) is the new single from this group of
apocalyptoes and it starts with an ominously approaching synth throb that
brings to mind the likes of Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Primal Scream and
early Kasabian. Then throw in a driving beat and wispy, waspish and seductive
vocal and you’ve got yourself a half-decent party but it’s only when the dirty,
scuzzy guitars turn up that things really get kicking. The darkness inherent in
this tune is given context by the light of the melodies that are from the
Florence + The Machine and the Gossip playbooks which makes for an intriguing
and thoroughly engaging experience. Bravo.
