Wolf Gang - Suego Faults
'Suego Faults' is the long awaited album by the London band and the project of Max McElligott, Wolf Gang. He took a risk and dropped out of university for this band. I reckon he did the right thing as this record is ravishing. <br />
<br />
Filled with marvellous cheerful songs, this album has gotten me excited for the summer. It's definitely an album for summer 2011. 'Lions and Cages' has had a few radio plays and one of the songs I heard on the radio since early this year. A nice melodic tune, a cross between MGMT and The Killers. They've got that electro pop thing going on. <br />
<br />
'The King and All of his Men' has been around since 2009 and they re-released and re-recorded another version of the song for this album. <br />
<br />
'Something Unusual' I think is my favourite song off the album. A perfect synthy pop song. <br />
<br />
There isn't one song on the album that doesn't put a smile on your face. They are all joyful pleasant songs, perfect to listen to when you're feeling down. <br />
<br />
Max McElligott did a good job. Influenced by likes of David Byrne, Brian Eno and David Bowie and we can hear some of the influences in some of the songs. <br />
<br />
Not quite rock n roll, cheesy electro rock/pop maybe, but worth a listen. <br />
