Just when I think this mix can’t please me more, Robb goes and pulls out Sons and Daughters, one of my favorites. I love just about everything the band’s ever done. I love the dynamic guy/girl interplay, the way their drummer is a human metronome, the bewitching combination of sly and sinister present in their best songs.
I didn’t want to stray far from those elements, since together they’re a strong recipe for success. So we continue our European vacation with The Victorian English Gentlemens Club and this tale of continental life gone sour. It’s a great song, bursting with a Fall-like bass and chugging drum—simple rock done very right.
