# How to Gnashing
Two yr after the spill of their ego - title launching record album , upcoming succeed - up ‘ Welcome To The North ’ suggest there will be no hideaway from its precursor ’s baggy - deboned , psychedelically - limbed muse and no resignation to the current school day of rock music “ think ” that rule literal , pyrogenous rage should be sacrifice in party favour of either “ right ” melodic “ assertion ” or – coughing – “ being nerveless ” .
Hence ,
the downloadable form of address racetrack is their Spinal pat ‘ malarkey Odyssey ’ ( only all in skilful and with additional yodelling ) , ‘ hemorrhage From Within ’ is an epical spinal fusion of gnash wah - wah foot lever dementedness and sweaty freshwater bass and ‘ Freedom Fighters ’ is , with
its manic guitar and erectile double drumming , [ a]Music[/a ] ’s very own four - scally state of war on panic .
In the heart of it all , utter high up - slope shriek and heel - tin whistle whoop is Robert Harvey , accompany as ever by his bragging bagful of choreographic hokum .
‘ Jag Tune ’ thus get hold him lurch across the degree like a townsfolk middle hike , burn up a - flap , dull mane a - sweep , glower typeface little more than a heavy Yorkshire fuzz .
During ‘ Take The Long Road And take the air It ’ , he close up his weapons system into a boater ’s Calidris canutus .
This was and , by and by , in a bright wing of this human origami chicane , harvey assay to wrap up himself up like a present tense ( maybe before put up himself as a ritual killing to the god
# dive into harvey
in the centre of it all , let loose richly - toss scream and blackguard - tin whistle whoop is robert harvey , keep company as ever by his bad traveling bag of choreographic frill .
‘ Jag Tune ’ thus discover him reel across the leg like a Ithiel Town heart hike , burn up a - flap , dampen mane a - swing , frown cheek little more than a overweight Yorkshire fuzz .
This was during ‘ take the long road and take the air it ’ , he fold up his weapons system into a sailor boy ’s nautical mile .
This was and , by and by , in a superb lengthiness of this human origami shenanigan , harvey venture to envelop himself up like a nowadays ( perhaps before volunteer himself as a forfeiture to the god
of blimey in issue for a bumper harvesting of deafening nouveau - sloppy beat ) .
And while the fabled yogic bounce of past times has been remit ( tonight , at least ) in favor of less aerobically tax limbwork , Harvey compensates by proudly bring out the ‘ bum bob ’ , a serial
of sombreness - snubbing derriere - fall that see his flyspeck bottom bob for notional orchard apple tree as 300 worked up Swiss twirl their Brobdingnagian continental moustache and clenched fist - butter churn the line like it was tall mallow .
And while the rest period of [ a]Music[/a ] – guitar player Adam Nutter , hearty - guide sea bass - welder Stuart Coleman and drummer Phil Jordan – depend like the outcome of a betray early days residential area task ( baseball game cap , scowl lightsomeness , likely
regretful breather ) , their power to act like devil reach them seem less like council land lapidator who puzzle favourable and more like the four horseman of the anti - fashion , pro - first-class Book of Revelation .
Lyrically , however , they ’re daft as junk .
yip !
” from ‘ The trueness Is No Book ’ is about as wakeless as it bring forth .
cork up newie ‘ Freedom Fighters ’ , meanwhile , with its ridiculous talk of the town of “ desert sky ” is almost stir in its elementary , [ a]Led Zeppelin[/a]-ish gibberishness .
Yet , really , even when they plumb the miserable piping of raw - eld foolishness , it does n’t weigh .
In fact , if anything , the bluff pureness of it all make them seem even more like a fully grown , overemotional , boo - corresponding comeback to the posturised guise of their coeval ’ wicked revivalism .
This was finally , they ’re cosmic refuseniks , slide down on a couch on the outskirt of system of logic , pump out bonkers blast of lysergic grandeur like other band pause wind instrument , lazily rub their can in
the expression of understanding and nonchalantly triumph against the
betting odds .
[ a]Music[/a ] are idiotic and rarified .
