Ahhh… Hercules & Love Affair
I’m sorry this is a belated post about the group but I’ve been spinnin ‘Blind’ quite religiously today (to the point of eardrum reverberation insanity) and thought that the internet could never have enough blogposts about groundbreakingly fresh and slightly haunting disco!
The amazingly named group actually remained under my radar amongst all the hype back in the first half of the year. Well yeah… I had heard of them but I just assumed they were the same or sounded the same as Heartsrev/Hail Social/Hold Steady and H-etc artists I'm not oblivious to anymore... promise!
Anyway, shamed belatedness aside- HERCULES & LOVE AFFAIR ARE INCREDIBLE. ‘Blind’ is one of the freshest songs I’ve heard all year.
In fact, If I was working for an elitist music publication I’d be giving them a well deserved 9 out of 10.
Antony’s voice is so captivating! I’m not sure any other vocalist could really do this song justice or give it such a powerful edge. He really will turn this track into a timeless one.
Together with the first-class vintage melodic backdrop we have one of the finest songs of the year!
