New Song from The Black Tambourines

I’ve been keeping my eye on this UK act for some time, as they seemed to have something…that something special. On this tune,The Black Tambourines still have that vibrant energy I adored when I first tune in to their music, but to a certain degree, they’ve gone in a different direction than I expected. The guitar work is still pretty strong, and I definitely appreciate the tenacity, yet this track feels safe. It’s got energy and style, but we’ll have to wait until their new album is completely finished before we hear how this song fits into the fold. Until then.

Enjoy The Black Tambourines

No. This is not the famed Slumberland act, Black Tambourine, rather it’s THE Black Tambourines, a UK act who I first caught wind of via Art Is Hard Records. The label is releasing the band’s self-titled debut today, and I’m pretty sure it’s a band you won’t be disappointed if you just spend a little time with this track. It’s a pretty fun track that gets your spirits up, offering ramshackle guitar pop that inevitably sinks under your skin. Guitars cascade in soloing fashion while the drums bang hard in your ears. I don’t see why you won’t love these guys.
