SONS AND DAUGHTERS
THE REPULSION BOX
DOMINO

Sons and Daughters get on like the lost progeny of Franz Ferdinand and Johnny Cash, delivering loose, country-tinged new wave with an often-demented energy, playing so quickly you sometimes think you hear the sweat. Unlike fellow Gang-of-Fivers like the Futureheads, however, Sons and Daughters don’t turn out neo-new wave retreads; "Red Receiver" vamps into handclaps that sound gleeful, and "Taste the Last Girl" is what a great song from X would have sounded like if they’d been based in Glasgow instead of LA. Much of the band’s spunk comes from the chemistry between singers Adele Bethel and Scott Patterson; the male-female tug creates a bit of sexy swagger, never a bad thing.
