They remind me a little of Shiny Toy Guns: alt rock with male and female leads, and both bands have songs I love and songs I can’t stand. Agree with other reviewers that the first few songs sound like White Stripes.
They have a much better sound when the girl is involved. She has a lovely warm voice, and they do stirring harmonies. Some of the songs get better with every listen, like Dull Gold Heart, Honest, and Bomb. I can’t stand Death by Diamonds etc and Fires, that’s why I only gave four stars.
Going to see them in a couple weeks. Wish they would hurry up and burn the hard copies so I could have a reference file.
