Album review
Shift Disco
There's been a lot of talk about The Race's second album - it's been put together by a stakeholder fund, don't you know. That means that, if it makes money, the fans win. Crafty releasing.
Anyway, it will make it, because it's really very good. From the standard indie guitars of 'Begin', the elegiac nature of the lyrics and the soaring guitars of the del Rio siblings make this a stadium-friendly unit-shifter which owes to many, from Arcade Fire to Simple Minds. If the race is on for successful rock with balls and brains, then it's already been won.
