Single Review
Spindling guitars and Didz Hammond’s dawdling bass lines provide an echoing 70s backing element, helping Carl Barat jump into his mod boots to set a more pondering mood than fans of this outfit maybe used to. An old fashioned romanticised topic shows a tender heart beats behind the mask of driving riffs that has become the bands signature.
Dirty Pretty Things seek to capitalise on the success of debut album ‘Waterloo To Anywhere’, as this third single projects a swaggering, almost dialogue approach that is popular at the moment after The Arctic Monkey’s recent Mercury Prize success. The above-mentioned Sheffield outfit undoubtedly owes a debt to Carl’s old band, The Libertines for paving the way for them. It’s all full circle back-slapping at the moment isn’t it?
