Our Take

Skinny Lister's latest offering, "A Matter Of Life & Love," is a rollicking romp through the highs and lows of modern folk-rock. This band of merry misfits has crafted an album that is both heartfelt and raucous, infused with a sense of reckless abandonment that is sure to get your foot tapping and your heart racing. From the infectious energy of "Second Amendment" to the bittersweet balladry of "What You Wanted," Skinny Lister manages to strike a perfect balance between the delicate and the bombastic.

The band's signature sound, which blends traditional folk instrumentation with punk sensibilities, is in full force on "A Matter Of Life & Love." The accordion and mandolin work of Lorna Thomas and Sam Brace adds a playful touch to the proceedings, while the thunderous rhythm section of Dan Gray and Thom Mills provides a solid foundation for the band's infectious melodies. Frontman Daniel Heptinstall's gravelly vocals are as endearing as ever, capturing the raw emotion of each song with a charming sincerity.

While "A Matter Of Life & Love" may not reinvent the folk-rock wheel, it's impossible to deny the sheer joy and exuberance that Skinny Lister brings to the table. This is music to drink, dance, and sing along to, a celebration of life's highs and lows that is as infectious as it is heartfelt. So grab a pint, raise it high, and join Skinny Lister on their boisterous journey through the ups and downs of love and life. Cheers to that!
