The Heavy – What Makes a Good Man?

Another Quality rock song. Sounds a bit like the Black Keys, but different. Enjoy.

From the album: The Heavy – The Glorious Dead (2012)

Blurby:

English soul-rockers The Heavy are all about moving through the past, darkly. Their sound is a Bitch’s Brew of hip hop breakbeats, ’60s R&B, funky horns, Sticky Fingers riffs, and zombie movie sound bytes. But for their third album, they moved to Columbus, GA where they picked up more than just a few church pamphlets. They picked up a whole gospel choir.

The final product: A clutch blues-rock record. On “What Makes A Good Man?” the guitar-vocal seduction is damn palpable, and when assisted by divine Georgian gospel singers, the call-and-response refrains come on like a southern gothic opera. No doubt, Dan Auerbach will be peeling the gold off his ceiling every time it plays.
