Motocade – Soap Opera
Spiky guitars eh, a thorn in your side? Only when you’re on a spiky guitar 24-hour bender in my opinion. And you can probably blame the Arctic Monkeys for the current proliferation of sharp riffs and even sharper word volleys. So in a crowed market is there room for another band of this ilk I hear you ask. Motocade certainly give a good case for the defence, the New Zealanders are busy getting the word out on their upcoming debut album and ‘Soap Opera’ speaks a language I am fully conversant in. They’ve been here before but this time there’s more meat on their bones and the ragged riffs seem a tad more focused and slinkily joined at the hip with the swaggering vocals. A nice way to spend 3 minutes of your day. KD

Wow, I absolutely love this upon first listen. The bass and guitar are excellent.
