Our Take

MAKIN TIME's latest album, "No Lumps of Fat or Gristle," is a delightful romp through the land of mod revivalism. With their signature blend of soulful melodies and infectious rhythms, this band proves once again why they are the reigning kings (and queens) of the scene.

From the opening track, "Dancing in the Street" to the closing notes of "Time Passes By," MAKIN TIME keeps the energy high and the grooves tight. The dynamic interplay between the guitars, drums, and horns is nothing short of magical, transporting listeners to a time when the dance floor was king and music was meant for moving.

Lead singer Johnny Jones shines on every track, his soulful vocals dripping with emotion and attitude. Whether he's crooning a tender ballad or belting out a raucous rocker, Jones's performance is a masterclass in charisma and style.

But it's not just about the frontman - the whole band is in top form here, each member contributing their unique talents to create a sound that is at once familiar and fresh. The production is crisp and clean, allowing every instrument to shine without cluttering the mix.

In conclusion, "No Lumps of Fat or Gristle" is a must-listen for any fan of mod music, or anyone looking for a good time. MAKIN TIME has delivered another stellar album, proving once again that they are a force to be reckoned with in the world of British rock. So put on your dancing shoes and get ready to groove - this album is pure gold from start to finish.

About the artist

Makin' Time

Makin' Time burst onto the mod revival scene in the late 1980s, serving up a potent mix of retro-inspired tunes that had fans dancing in their parka jackets and loafers. Hailing from Birmingham, this four-piece band quickly made a name for themselves with their infectious energy and undeniable swagger. Fronted by the charismatic vocalist Faye and backed by the talented trio of Mark, Martin, and Russ, Makin' Time's music is a glorious throwback to the golden days of the mod movement. With influences ranging from The Who to The Kinks, their sound is a refreshing blast from the past that's guaranteed to get your toes tapping. Their debut album, Rhythm! (1990), was a critical and commercial success, earning them a dedicated following and a reputation as one of the most exciting bands on the indie scene. Tracks like "Here Is My Number" and "Honey (All Over)" showcase Makin' Time's knack for crafting irresistible hooks and tight, punchy rhythms. Despite disbanding in the early 1990s, Makin' Time's music continues to be celebrated by mods and music lovers alike. Their legacy lives on through their timeless tunes and their enduring influence on the Britpop and indie scenes. So dust off your fishtail parka, polish up your Vespa, and crank up the volume on Makin' Time's retro-fueled hits. You won't be able to resist the urge to dance the night away to their infectious grooves.
