It’s about time
Everything Everything showed their faces again (read our review from their gig in 2010 here!) and it’s safe to say that they
really don’t disappoint with their new album Arc - released this month and our listening choice
of the week.
It is quite literally
everything that you want an indie album to be: good beats, catchy and irresistible.
There are 13 awesome
and varied tracks to get you through this tiring windy and wet weather plus an
extra 6 on their deluxe album, each track representing a different tone and
mood.
Some more upbeat
tracks like Cough Cough contrasted with more melodramatic tunes like Torso of
the Week with chillingly beautiful The Peaks. The only way to describe these
guys music is just very cool.
The gritty underlay of
their (Jonathon Higgs, Jeremy Pritchard, Michael Spearman and Alex Robertshaw) lyrics
is covered by their eclectic funk but really they’re singing about a lot of
depressing things like human irresponsibility and guilt. Don’t be mistaken
though, this in no way deters from the fact that the result is absolutely sublime.
Take a listen and view
at the awesome Cough Cough...
Next live gig will be
at Oxford O2 Academy on Feb 14 .
