Today is the day. Slow Knights' debut album is now available via iTunes or vinyl. After a good few listens today, I have to say it is firmly the best album I have listened to this year (closely followed by Deptford Goth's, Life After Defo). Take a listen to Under Attack above.
If you don't know already, Slow Knights is a project of Del Marquis' (aka Scissor Sisters guitar/synth). Also a part of the album is hotOctopus fave, Bright Light Bright Light, along with Xavier, Mykal Kilgore, Bridget Barkan & Chrissi Poland.
Imagine a Paris Is Burning after-party smack bang in the mid-80s, fabulous bitches, and partying on (a/the) pier. The sound spreads from disco, synthpop, funk to soul and will get.you.in.the.mood.
It's excellent start to finish, there's nothing more I really need to say. Plus it's only £6.99 on iTunes - you probably spend more on that in Pret or Eat for your lunch.
That's basically my 'review'. Go and buy it.
Standout Tracks: Legendary Children, Shame and In The Quiet.
