Wolves is an album for the brooders. For those stuck in a rut or just stuck at a tram stop. It is for those with a headache, or worst-case scenario, a heartache. And, as Amazon.com says, it is also for the people that bought the Arcade Fire and Belle & Sebastian.
Glaswegian band My Latest Novel’s debut is as narrative as their name suggests, charismatic songwriting is punctuated by four part harmonies and tempo changes, strings and even the odd (but always charming) bit of whistling.
At times Trainspotting script, at times Dead Man soundtrack, Wolves is both epic and engaging, evoking an age-old melancholy while maintaining contemporary relevance.
If you can, forget about the music industry that cried wolf, My Latest Novel’s Wolves, although containing stories, is no lie.
