After wowing the masses with their latest studio effort, The Maccabees are back with the follow up to Given To The Wild’s lead single; Pelican. It’s clear that the band have matured significantly as musicians and even as people. Combining a wide array of unexpected sounds throughout their new material.
As Feel To Follow builds gradually, led by Week’s wispy vocals, it’s not until the second half that an explosion of anthemic synth and guitar interplay arises, leading the a stroll into Iron Maiden territory – dual guitar shredding. A quality completely absent upon Colour It In or Wall Of Arms.
Surprisingly this cacophony of merged sounds works terrifically, although the childhood nostalgia has sadly vanished, their new album has provided the success and status that the band have worked so hard for
Jonathan Hatchman.
