 to access audio and video on collective you need real player.A mixed bag from Glasgow. This quintet may share fellow Glaswegians Franz Ferdinand’s penchant for neurotic white funk, but they approach it with a radically different attitude. Led by “Mother” Sam Smith (also an alias) they unveil their riotous and unruly, rampantly wide-ranging debut, which careers through glam, rockabilly, doo-wop, end-of-the-pier chanson, garage punk and funk with an almost exhausting energy and a truckload of chutzpah. The final twist in their corkscrew tail comes with the closer, Even Time Will Destroy Me, which wouldn’t be out of place on Eno’s Another Green World.Mother And The Addicts - Take The Lovers Home Tonight, released 22 August 05 on Chemikal Underground.
