The Long Blondes - Guilt
Related Artist:
The Long Blondes
Release Date: 26/05/08
Label: Rough Trade
Rating: 7/10
Long gone are the days of kitchen sink drama from The Long Blondes. Transformed by Erol Alkan’s dancey paws, the Sheffield five-piece now sound more ‘Saturday Night Fever’ than ‘Saturday Night and Sunday Morning.’ With Reenie’s slinky bass line and Kate Jackson’s saccharine purr, make no mistake: this is disco.
Originally intended as the first single to be plucked from ‘Couples’, ‘Guilt’ is the antithesis of ‘Weekend Without Make-Up’, finding Jackson cheating where once she was the cheated, cooing softly "we both know why we’re here."
It’s good, but about as fashionable as your dad at a roller disco. In flares. With an afro. A guilty pleasure for sure.
