The Raptors – Your Dreams

| The Raptors - Your Dreams |
Release Date: Out Now
Glasgow quartet the Raptors first
wooed me with their Christmas single but new single ‘Your Dreams’ has taken the
relationship to a new level. The garage energy and raw, rattling guitars are
still there, sure, but there’s a passion here that wasn’t there at Christmas
and it makes me excited for the summer. Comparisons with the Stooges, the
Franklys and Patti Smith are inevitable but that doesn’t mean this isn’t fresh
and vibrant in the way all rock’n’roll should be but rarely is anymore. ‘Your
Dreams’ is the sound of four women choosing a path and following it with
head-down determination, a curled lip and no small amount of leather. “Believe
in your dreams, in your dreams” they sing and I feel like a teenager getting
ready to leave home all over again.
