O zespole grającym z Davem słów kilka

Dave Gahan oraz #Soulsavers - skład zespołu #Imposter

Do końca nie wiadomo, czy koncertem w Berlinie mini trasa promująca album Imposter się zakończy, czy też z początkiem 2022 zostaną wznowiona. Czas przyniesie odpowiedź. Ja chciałbym się dziś zająć takim drobiazgiem, jak skład zespołu. Tak wiem, dla wielu fanów, to jedynie tło dla Dave’a, bo przecież Soulsavers nie wydawali płyt przed podjęciem współpracy z Davem, a pozostali muzycy to jedynie…

Song Review(s): Pretenders - “Hate for Sale,” “You Can’t Hurt a Fool” and “The Buzz”

On the title track from their forthcoming 11th studio album, Pretenders go back to the beginning and play with throbbing, post-punk intensity while Chrissie Hynde snarles like an angry young woman.

With its false start, occasional bleats from a harmonica and snide, kiss-off lyrics, “Hate for Sale” sounds like Pretenders circa 1980 by Pretenders 2020.

Like “Hate for Sale,” the two other singles are Hynde-James Walbourne co-writes. Unlike “Hate for Sale,” “You Can’t Hurt a Fool” and “The Buzz” could be by two other bands entirely, save for Hynde’s inimitable vocals.

If the title track is a time machine to the early ’80s, “You Can’t Hurt a Fool” goes back even farther. This is an autobiographical, R&B ballad on which the 68-year-old Hynde sings of a singer who is too old to know better, too young for her age.

The feathery, acoustic-guitar pop of “The Buzz,” meanwhile, would feel right at home on any of the many albums Jeff Lynne produced during the back half of that decade. It takes no chances and has no payoff.

Hate for Sale, which features the return of founding drummer Martin Chambers, is out July 17.
