Much has been made of Arctic Monkeys front man Alex Turner’s guest inclusion and co-writing credit for ‘Time Machine’, on the life commentating and climbing indie debut album ‘The State Of Things’. A slight dub funk nudge attaches itself delicately to third single from this album ‘Open Your Window’. This builds up to the Tim Burgess and chilled-out Ian Brown chorus kick, giving John ‘The Reverend’ McClure and his backing band an independent streak.
Non-album ballad tingle, ‘Paris At Night’, analysis the heart of a worried lover with precision, as McClure’s vocals lag behind sparse and aching guitar punctuation to wretch out the feeling. With this The Rev and co turn their backs on the Arctic Monkey’s pigeon hole with the forthrightness of Naboo in The Mighty Boosh. The dialogue approach does come gushing to the fore in The Pigeon Detectives eclipsing and angular driving, ‘Lydia’. Sheffield isn’t yet ready to give up their pride of place as the driving force of the indie scene just yet.
