The Heavy: The Glorious Dead
Feb 19th, 2013 by dcronin
“The Heavy’s third studio album, 2012′s The Glorious Dead is a bombastic acid rock, funk, and blues-soaked album that sounds like the illegitimate offspring of the Black Keys and Gnarls Barkley… The Heavy delve into various punk, dance, and blues-influenced sounds including the manic garage rock meets mariachi band anthem ‘Just My Luck’ and ‘What Makes a Good Man?,’ which splits the difference between the retro hip-hop soul of Kanye West’s ‘Gold Digger’ and ‘Discothèque’-era U2.” –All Music Guide
