SMITH WESTERNS - Weekend (2011)
A song about weekends to kick off your weekend.
My most-sung song last month, which means, yes: I filled the house, the shower, the car, the hallway at work, with attempts at refining the refrain should I ever have to perform it in a karaoke sing-off.
If Smith Westerns were older and English - they’re barely legal and from Chicago - I’d picture them wearing floppy hair, eyeliner and women’s blouses - which means, yes: I hear Suede and Pulp at the height of their twinkly, Ed Buller-produced, glam pop heydays.
I also hear the dazed ‘n’ confused sound of the real housewives of glam rock nation, which means, yes: this is a beckoning finger for all you Bolan, Bowie and Sweet hounds: a woozy hit of hedonistic, singalong rock spiked with wistful guitar hooks that stick like Mackintosh’s Toffee.
The whole album’s like this. Investigate!
