HURTS

Hurts

Faith

    Formed in Manchester over a decade ago, Hurts are an electronic pop band featuring vocalist Theo Hutchcraft and multi instrumentalist and producer Adam Anderson. Known for their striking and stylish videos, Hurts make epic, dramatic pop music that takes inspiration from a finely curated mix of influences including '70s Krautrock, '80s new wave, and '90s R&B. 
    Arrving on the scene with a studied appreciation of La Dolce Vita, a naif interpretation of 90s holiday pop and a snare sound craftily adapted from the sole of a very expensive shoe hitting a largely ordinary floor, Hurts made a big impression, and their subsequent chart success is testament to a longevity their contemporaries lacked. This new album, packed with stadium pop songs, punchy productions and radio friendly tracks sees the duo once again flaunt an uncanny ability to translate intellectual and emotive subjects into something accessible enough to make it into a particularly dramatic scene in Hollyoaks (or whatever people young enough to be relevant watch).

      Shellac

      1000 Hurts

        1000 Hurts shows Shellac in prime form. Since the release of Terraforms, they seem to have realized that 12-minute rock songs don't rock. This record's longest track, "Mama Gina," clocks in at an appropriate 5:44, long enough to fully flesh out the song, but not so long that the groove gets tired. 

        But as harsh and abrasive as it sounds, 1000 Hurts is an undeniably strong release. This album rocks hard, despite the fact that the man behind it is a squishy A/V club member with a bad attitude. So it seems that Albini's success as a producer hasn't greatly improved his personal life. Luckily, the same can't be said for his records.
