Theresa’s Sound World Music Blog Collection There’s something I that I’ve loved for years- the Scottish accent and Indie guitar, from Teenage Fanclub to Arab Strap, from Prolapse to the Vaselines. Benjamin Blue are no exception, a real summery, REMish, almost C86 jangle, with lovely male & female harmonies. Also, the odd time signature thing is used here to a great effect, especially on track 2 & more on track 3. It really puts me in mind of all those records in my vinyl collection that I collected in the 90s when time signature experimentation was at it’s genesis, bands like Slint, Nub and Navigator. However, Benjamin Blue take Math Rock/time signature guitar music in a different direction with an added pop sensibility. Special mention: the bass and drum work on track 3 is effing mighty!
