Young Knives - Voices Of Animals Men

Literate observers of love, life and modern Britain, The Young Knives are not merely urgent, angry young men, they are capable of crafting alluring ballads and brooding mid-paced mope-Rock of the most stunning kind too, as demonstrated on this, their debut album. The jerky, whip-cracking Disco-Punk energy of 'Weekends And Bleak Days (Hot Summer)' and the pile-driving Art Punk of 'Here Comes the Rumour Mill', you already know from their single incarnations. But, they only tell half the story. Placed alongside the neat, summery swoon-pop of 'Hollow Line' or the mordant, beautiful 'Trembling of Trails', they reveal The Young Knives to be a band of many diverse talents. The Young Knives: sharp young blades with a steely resolve. 14 tracks. 2006.
