The Shills/ Ten City Nation –

Coupling scuzzy guitar with vocals which call to mind Caleb Followill, should Kings of Leon have come from Cambridgeshire rather than Tennessee, The Shills’ only contribution to this unevenly balanced split single, “Gunshot”, is a jangling yet fuzzy blast of garage-indie goodness.

Ten City Nation’s couplet of songs donated to the split are of a heavier nature than The Shills. “Flashing Lights” is an pumelling, Soundgarden-esque track, only overshadowed by successor, “Silent Disco”. The final track of this all-too-short introduction starts of sounding, rather aptly, like a B-side to Song of the Deaf-era Queens of the Stone Age, building and building to a hulking, sweating thrash which recalls the popular musical phenomenon from America’s Pacific Northwest at the back end of the ’80s.
