Our Take

If Pitchfork reviewed "Chicken Shack's Crying Won't Help You Now," it might go a little something like this:

Prepare to get your feathers ruffled with Chicken Shack's latest album, "Crying Won't Help You Now." This band of hens really knows how to lay down some clucking good tunes. From the first track to the last, you'll be pecking away at the replay button.

The album opens with the moody title track, setting the tone for a barnyard brawl of emotion. Lead hen, Christine McVie, delivers powerful vocals that will leave you as limp as a wet feather. The band's bluesy riffs and toe-tapping rhythms will have you strutting around the coop in no time.

"Webbed Feet Blues" is a standout track that showcases the band's knack for creating catchy melodies with a dash of poultry-inspired humor. You'll be clucking along in no time, guaranteed to have this track stuck in your head for days.

But it's not all fun and games in the Chicken Shack. Tracks like "Eggshell Heart" and "Fowl Play" dive deep into themes of heartbreak and betrayal, showing that even the most charming chickens have their dark side.

Overall, "Crying Won't Help You Now" is a feather-ruffling success from start to finish. Chicken Shack proves once again that they're not just a flash in the pan, but a band with serious chops. So, spread your wings and give this album a listen - you won't be disappointed.

About the artist

Chicken Shack

Chicken Shack, the enigmatic duo hailing from the rolling hills of the English countryside, have been making waves in the music scene with their unique blend of folk, electronica, and good old-fashioned rock 'n' roll. Fronted by the charismatic singer-songwriter Henrietta "Hen" Featherstone and the multi-talented instrumentalist Cluck McGraw, Chicken Shack are a force to be reckoned with. Hen's haunting vocals, reminiscent of a young Joni Mitchell, soar over Cluck's intricate guitar work, creating a sound that is both haunting and uplifting. Their debut album, "Feathers and Fiddles," has been met with critical acclaim, with Pitchfork calling it "a breath of fresh air in a sea of mediocrity." But don't let their folksy exterior fool you; Chicken Shack are anything but your average acoustic duo. Their live shows are a spectacle to behold, with Cluck's blistering guitar solos and Hen's captivating stage presence leaving audiences spellbound. It's no wonder they've been compared to the likes of Fleetwood Mac and The Civil Wars. So if you're looking for a musical experience that is equal parts soulful and electrifying, look no further than Chicken Shack. With their infectious energy and undeniable talent, this dynamic duo are poised to take the music world by storm. Keep an eye out for them at a venue near you; you won't want to miss out on the magic that is Chicken Shack.
