Sounds and Zounds

Take a member from Blur, The Clash, Verve and add in Tony Allen and you get the sounds of The Good the Bad and the Queen. I have been listen to this disc for the last week and the retro non-interruptive feel to it has been a great pleasure to listen to in the studio.
There is a sort of dirty time machine sound to this group of songs that seems to want to transport me to some street in London. It has been a fantastic sunrise that seems fresh and familiar with a great balance in rhythm and expression.
