Sons and Daughters: This Gift
If you have not noticed how much I've mentioned the Glasgow, Scotland, band Sons and Daughters lately, then you're just not paying attention! I have talked about them twice in conjunction with SXSW, and now I'm going to hit you with an album review of their debut full-length CD, This Gift.
It's not too early for me to gush that this is the most exciting album I have listened to so far this year. With Adele Bethel on lead vocals and Scott Paterson providing backups, Sons and Daughters present tight power-house rock that never slacks on energy or melody. There are no weak tracks; it's 100% pure goodness.
Check how Bethel and Paterson trade wolf-howls against jangly guitar on the title cut. If you like this, trust me, you will want it all.
