Our Take
Our Take
Dry Cleaning's debut album, "New Long Leg," is a sharp and witty exploration of the absurdities of modern life set to a backdrop of post-punk jams. With their distinct British English delivery, the band takes listeners on a journey through mundane observations and unexpected moments of brilliance.
Lead singer Florence Shaw's deadpan vocals are a standout feature of the album, offering a unique perspective on everything from office politics to existential dread. Tracks like "Scratchcard Lanyard" and "Her Hippo" showcase the band's ability to seamlessly blend spoken word with infectious grooves, creating a sound that is both captivating and refreshing.
The instrumentation on "New Long Leg" is equally impressive, with guitarist Tom Dowse, drummer Nick Buxton, and bassist Lewis Maynard providing a dynamic backdrop for Shaw's cutting lyrical observations. The album's production, overseen by producer John Parish, is crisp and clean, allowing every sonic detail to shine through.
Overall, Dry Cleaning has crafted a debut album that is as thought-provoking as it is catchy. "New Long Leg" is a must-listen for fans of witty lyricism and angular post-punk sounds. So grab your scratchcard lanyard and dive into this album - you won't be disappointed.
