Ever wondered what The Darkness covering Sparks would sound like? Uh, no. Well
we did, until British Whale washed up on our shores a couple of months ago and
made us all long for a Norwegian harpoon to come hurtling out of the fog and put
it out of our misery.
Ah. Bugger. Ok. Well, The Decision sounds like what you'd imagine The Darkness
covering Sparks would have sounded like, if we hadn't already actually heard
what it did sound like. Confused? You will be. It's a decidedly odd little song.
Admittedly it does trek down the angular post-punk road recently well travelled,
but it does so in jodhpurs and a funny three-corned hat, all the time hollering
"I'm the Prince Of Wales!", like some kind of care in the community version of
Bloc Party.
There's a good slice of inherited credibility too, with none other than Gang Of
Four member Andy Gill on production duties. Eccentric, quirky and all kinds of
likeable, these Young Knives may well turn out to be some of the sharpest tools
in the box.
Note: We consider ourselves at MP3 to be ahead of
the game when it comes to audio quality. We prefer
to rip to LAME 3.97b because it yields better sound
quality at a more efficient bitrate. However, the
scene is not yet prepared for 3.97b, as pzs-ng/glftpd
have not yet been updated to detect the presets in
this new encoder. In addition to this, some groups
have been taking advantage of using new LAME versions
or presets and have been sound shaping and altering
bitrates to make re-encoded webrips appear as legit
releases. As such, we have decided to revert to an
outdated version of LAME until the scene is prepared
for an update.
