Sons & Daughters - 'Johnny Cash' (Domino)
5/5
By: Kari Wynn
YIPPIE-YI-O and YEEEE-HAW! Sound the rebel yell, smack our collective arses and roll out the whiskey! Glasgow's Sons & Daughters are here to be your hillbilly dirt track date to a speed-addled, country bunk-up. Yes, some old farmer is going to wake you up face down in his corn field when they're done cramming your ears full of their own special blend of Americana-delta-bottle-(stomp on your)-neck-blues. It ain't gonna be pretty, but it sure as hell is gonna be fun.
Fronted by Adele 'F**k Karen O' Bethel and Scott 'More Jack Than Jock' Paterson, Sons & Daughters do true dark country justice to the man they named their debut single after. 'Johnny Cash' delivers up a frenzied freak-a-billy fest - as menacing and demonic as the original man in black. On 'Hunt', Adele steps forward to deliver an eardrum-shattering performance that's sexy, scary and spine-shivering, all at once. Rack up a big line of devil dust then throw some slide guitar and stomping boots on top - it's bumpkin chic, brothers and sisters.
Frantic, furious and f**king fabulous. Join the family.
