the rakes - retreat ep

Well, well, well. Another British release to feature traditionally “british” vocalists. And they do a fine job of it, too. Fortunately and unfortunately, their music is pretty basic. Yes, they have some grand hooks and their songs are for the most part extraordinarily catchy (”Retreat,” “22 Grand Job,” “Strasbourg”), but there’s not a lot of new sounds forged here.

They’re terrific for the here and now. Tom likes their lyrics, so do I, and they’re really nice for driving or biking. Radio friendly too. But not amazing.
