Last night in the bittersweet


Beskrivelse


Summary: A 70-minute epic that spans the distance from classic rock to post-punk to hypnotic Krautrock, in the process proving its value as Paolo Nutini's deepest, most varied, most accomplished, and ultimately most rewarding set so far. The insistent Motorik rhythms of new single 'Lose It' brings shades of early '70s German bands like Can and Neu!, and are a product of Nutini's writing increasingly on bass guitar.

"Quiet since 2014's soul-inflected 'Caustic Love', [Nutini]'s re-emerged with a significantly broader musical palette and a sound which, on the heroic 'Shine A Light', borders on anthemic. But there's more. "Lose It" merges Split Enz' s "I Got You" with the relentlessness of Krautrock; "Heart Filled Up" begins in almost hymnal fashion and finishes like late-period Julian Cope, while the opening "Afterneath" samples Quentin Tarantino's "True Romance" and, remarkably, owes much to Throbbing Gristle. At 70 minutes it's worth wallowing in. He's pushing his own boundaries".
