SchwaB - 'Bland Band Boogie' (Foundation)

4/5

By: Toby L

Schwab - 'Bland Band Boogie'

An alt-radio favourite, and as recorded at the prestigious Toerag Studios in London's East London - under the watchful eye of the white-coated Liam Watson - SchwaB are a blues-hip-hop, beats-fuelled barrage of fuzzy guitar and scratchy, soulful vox.

It's a hybrid that particularly perks up and peaks in a frantic, bellowed middle-section, where the drums hit harder and hallowed ghosts of the MC5 begin to float around your hi-fi and threaten to get their cheque-book out, very possibly ready to sue perilous culprits, SchwaB. Too late, though - the hand-clapping, 'ooh-aah' bit has just occurred.

Ballistic, blaring, and - without a shadow of a doubt - quite brilliant.
