Liines – Shallow (Reckless Yes Records)
Liines - Shallow |
Release Date: Out Now
Manchester trio Liines mean
business and their business is post-punk with a wry smile and a glint in the
eye. New single ‘Shallow’ starts with a primal rhythm section rumble and thump
before vocals kick in that are somewhere between Beth Ditto and PJ Harvey with Mark
E Smith’s commitment to delivery. Like contemporaries Berries, these three
women are ploughing a very unique and individual furrow using talent, passion
and a singular sense of direction that you have to admire – especially when
they manage a little bass and drum breakdown in a song that is only a smidge
over two minutes long. This is fiery, incendiary, direct and raw which are all
qualities I can’t help but adore in a song and the artists behind it.
