The Duke Spirit Cuts Across The Land Rapidshare

The Duke Spirit: Cuts Across the Land Album Review. If they wanted to, the Duke Spirit could probably hook up a few synthesizers, apply some hairspray, and become to Blondie what the Killers are to Duran Duran. But hey, that'd be too easy; instead, Cuts Across the Land is an album brimming with the piss and vinegar expected from a band toiling- - until recently- - fruitlessly in the British music scene since 2. Of course, that sort of elbow grease is required when you're aiming to usurp the femme- blues throne currently occupied by PJ Harvey and newbies the Kills and Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

Still, that doesn't prevent singles . The former rides an ascending guitar riff until Moss's heartbreak boils over into a flurry of piqued . The title track taps the Jesus and Mary Chain mentality of repeating a basic chord progression until it sounds revolutionary- - and a clamoring, Sonic Youth- inspired breakdown two- thirds through serves as a dead- on extension of Moss's scoffing persona. Despite the blemishes, Cuts Across the Land is a surprisingly galvanized and consistent offering from a band that has hardly registered a blip on most British, let alone American, radar screens- - an inverse Coldplay of sorts.

Score one for the underdog.
