Friday, 16 November 2007Sons and Daughters - Gilt Complex on Domino records Sons and Daughters Gilt Complex / Cover: Adamski's 'Killer' Domino Records Quantity Pressed: Not Specified Released: 29/10/07 Sons and Daughters, appropriately 2 girls and 2 guys, have a sixties garage feel right off the bat, they launch this track with a killer riff reminiscent of something like Painted Black by the Stones, all crisp distortion and then a stomping tom beat kicks in with handclaps. Adele Bethel continues to drive this track right over the cliff, while backing bandmates add the na na na's which complete the hair raising chorus. There's elements of rockabilly in rhythm and attitude, they are examining that dark, devil blues place in spirit with a modern sound. Like a haggis western, with Ennio morricone whistling, they could be scoring a grindhouse biker movie. All set in the west, with dust flying, go-go dancers at the seedy stripclub, and guns and gangs. Whatever happens next is not going to be a happy go lucky feel good time. Scott trades vocal duties on various tracks and rules a thick scottish accent fighting with Adele for mic time. It's all frantic, sometimes hinting at transvision vamp with a tougher edge. They take all these things and subtlety bring a pop dance element to it all, and after all the doom and gloom it's a welcome relief.
