Our Take
Our Take
Upon first listen, it's clear that Sean McGowan's latest offering, Graft And Grief, is not your average pint of bitter. This Portsmouth lad has crafted an album that is as gritty and authentic as a late-night kebab, but with the charm and wit of a cheeky Nando's order.
From the opening track, "Millbrook Estate," McGowan invites us into his world of working-class anthems and kitchen sink realism. With lyrics that cut through the noise like a sharp knife through butter, he tackles themes of love, loss, and life in the rawest, most heart-wrenching way possible.
Tracks like "Silk" and "Porky Paul" showcase McGowan's storytelling prowess, while the infectious melodies of "Local Boy" and "Mind the Timber" will have you tapping your feet and raising your pint in solidarity.
But it's not all doom and gloom on Graft And Grief. McGowan sprinkles in a healthy dose of humour and self-deprecation, reminding us that even in the darkest of times, there's always a light at the end of the tunnel (or a pub at the end of the street).
In conclusion, Sean McGowan's Graft And Grief is a triumph of songwriting and storytelling. It's like a warm hug from your best mate after a night of heavy drinking - comforting, relatable, and absolutely bloody brilliant. So grab a copy, stick it on your turntable, and raise a glass to one of Britain's finest troubadours. Cheers, mate!
