Gene are quite a long running indie band. They have produced many albums to date, the most recent being ‘Revelations’, but I this may be their best. They are excellent live, so what’s this like? I love it. It has four singles on it – ‘Fighting Fit’, ‘Where Are They Now?’, ‘Speak To Me Someone’, and ‘We Could Be Kings’. But the album tracks are superb too. With 12 tracks in total, track 1 is a 6 minute instrumental track, which is brilliant and atmospheric to start with, an excellent build up. ‘Speak To Me Someone’ is probably the best track on the album, an extremely powerful track which makes you feel Martin Rossiter is giving it all straight from the heart. Other favourites of mine are ‘Save Me, I’m Yours’, ‘I Love You, What Are You?’ and ‘Voice Of The Father’, but all the tracks are classics, and I can’t really criticise any of them. Piano is used to great effect all the way through the album, as are the indie mainstays of guitar and drums.
This is a brilliant album, full of musical and lyrical merit – the songs really create a kind of atmosphere to suck you in. I would recommend it to anyone – brilliant.
