Benefits - What More Do You Want? (Invada
Records)
Release Date: Out Now
Benefits are new to my ears but the Teesside collective leave one hell of an impression on new single 'What More Do You Want?'. For the first 30 seconds or so this track just consists of a rapid but fiercely articulate rant about the state of things before someone starts testing the drum kit out and then, just when you think you've found the measure of this one, an almighty clattering and roaring noise kicks in with no sense of direction or purpose other than to shock and demand your attention. My advice? When the King's coronation comes around you should stick it on the TV but mute it and play this on a loop over the top - it should balance you out or tip you over the edge. Either way, this is good stuff.
