Im always interested in a band with leanings towards Britpop. And while The Capes are more versatile than that, it stands out to me and made me more interested. File them under, “may just be the next big thing”. Here is a great quote about the band worth a quick read.
Although you must not ‘judge a book by its cover’, the bright yellow album cover sums up its contents quite nicely. It is hard not to like most of the songs on this album, bursting with clout and choruses that remind us of Blur, The Jam, Futureheads and even, quite bizarrely, The Beach Boys at times. This is an eclectic album that showcases the talents of a young British band eager to prove themselves worthy of your attention.
And Carly, the song Im sharing today, described briefly below….
‘Carly’, a classic sub-3 minute song with sharp vocals from frontman Kris Barratt dovetails with pounding drums and retro-keyboards that will have even the most leaden-foot tapping by its end.
