LIVINGSTON – SINGLE REVIEW


Livingston – Sabotage (Krod Records) 
Livingston - Sabotage

Release Date: 29th November 2019

The press release accompanying this single opens with the warning ‘Long Story Short’ and that is no understatement. London based multinational combo Livingston have been evolving and shifting shape for over a decade now but that’s what any band worth their salt should be doing, right? ‘Sabotage’ is the sound of a band free of any creative shackles as they emerge from a subdued vocal and beat combination into a squalling guitar onslaught that is reminiscent of Shihad or Chris Cornell material. The slick production, soaring vocals and uplifting key changes make this a rock track with real power, class and, dare I say it, panache. If this is your first time with Livingston then the great news is they have quite the back catalogue too so you can use this as your gateway drug and have a whole load of fun with it.
