Free Music Notes for Who Killed...... The Zutons
Free Music Review: A Suprise Addition to bands I will Follow
Hit: 5 Stars
I bought this CD from another site because I had to meet a minimun for free shipping. Anyways, this quickly became a regular in my rotation, and I am looking forward to buying the rest of their albums.
The trumpet is awesome, and oddly enough was not originally part of the line up. The Zutons are a bouncy, fun indie rock band. You will find yourself getting their songs stuck in your head after just a few listens. I can only imagine how great they would be live.
Who Killed...... The Zutons Poster
If merry Liverpudlians the Zutons really do have aspirations to marry Talking Heads with Sly and the Family Stone they fail miserably on Who Killed the Zutons?. There's a riot going on this debut album, but there's no bloodshed, just a mobbish custard pie confrontation between differing factions of pop history. Putting gimmickry to the fore, the Zutons start the album with their Monkees-styled theme tune "Zuton Fever", which could well be a cartoon voodoo version of Echo and the Bunnymen. Then the fun begins: obvious touchstones are the British invasion R&B of the Spencer Davis Group and the Animals (stompers such "Long Time Coming" and "You Will You Won't" are convincing vintage soul fakes) coupled with that awkward evolutionary blip in the 60s when white soulboys went psychedelic (see Zoot Money and Dantalion's Chariot). Add on some ghoulish surf guitars and creepy stuff about zombies, food poisoning and tropical diseases to keep fans of the Cramps happy and then append with the cheapest toy sax in rock since Laura Logic's punk parpings with X-Ray Spex. It works. Even so, the melancholic moments are the best, among them the Kinks-tinted, rainy-day ennui of "Not a Lot to Do" and the cruel-to-be-kind kiss-off of "Confusion" ("from day one, I led you on"). --Kevin MaidmentBeefheart worshipping Scousers with a penchant for skiffle-ridden pop. 'Who Killed The Zutons?' is quite possibly the best debut album to arrive from Liverpool since the La's proved there was more to the city than Lennon & McCartney. Energetic, inventive & constantly surprising, this is destined to be one of the albums of the year. Deltasonic. 2004.
Debut Album from the British Art Rockers who Fuse Sounds Generated by their Forefathers and Mothers to Forge a Fresh New Sound. Influences Range from Paul Mccartney to Frank Zappa, Roxy Music, War and Any Number of Bluegrass and Rockabilly Favorites.
