Saint Agnes – Welcome To Silvertown
Death or Glory Gang Records / Ingrooves Records
Rock, Garage
Rated: ****
Have you heard a bit of the hype surrounding Saint Agnes? Have you thought about immediately dismissing them and continuing on to a band that nobody has heard off yet? Sure, you might be in that kind of mindset or it might be your pre-set volition. But if you set that aside for a moment and dive into the gothic and punk sewers of London where the members originate from you might discover something pretty darn good. A first sceptic listening session will soon turn into a magic dance as the tunes of the debut album Welcome To Silvertown take possession of your soul and blood. Memories of the White Stripes, The Stooges and many more soon surface, but above all it is the wild garage sound and old blues that will make your bones shake and your ghost go crazy. It has a very own and distinct atmosphere that drifts among the tracks across the entire album; it has charisma, soul and a vocalist with an intense raw voice that definitely has charisma herself. Seductive and sultry in a dangerous way! Saint Agnes, more than the sum of her parts…
