Little Fish – Sweat N Shiver

| On 30, Nov 2010

One thing you wouldn’t expect Little Fish, purveyors of previous single Am I Crazy (existentialist garage rock with a singer like P.J Harvey stepping on a nail), is release a mid-tempo, drive time, slightly AOR tinged ballad with a hummable chorus. Not one to be pigeonholed, that’s exactly what they’ve done, and strangely enough, it’s excellent.

Sounding like The Kills if Alison Mossheart didn’t want to kill her audience, Sweat N Shiver rattles along with crunchy guitars, 60’s esque Hammond organ and, inexplicably, a vocal melody that brings to mind Sheryl Crow, andit all comes together to make something that’s melodic, strangely comforting, and a great omen about Little Fish’s ability to diversify their sound, a duos bread and butter. Highly recommended.
