The Phantom Band- The Wants (Chemikal Underground)

 The Phantom Band- The Wants (Chemikal Underground)


While The Phantom Band return with an invariable feast of sides of scottish Indie rock, like most of the Scottish scene, "The Wants" heavily registers from many established acts (like a lot of English bands too) but stumble upon throughout their various styles, from straight up post rock to stand out track "Walls'" synth lead some original ground of their own. "Wants" is filled with some excellently performed and perceptive Indie Rock, some harmonies Sitek would be proud of, epic glam stomp to simplistic folk, I'm suprised the band hasn't seen more attention placed upon them, but at the same time there is no stand out track here which makes "Wants" an interesting journey to enjoy in one long listen then capable of a full out assault on the music scene just yet. 6.5/10
