The Rakes - Klang (2009)

Cover pic.



The Rakes are a four piece indie rock band hailing from London, whose style can be described as “lo-fi” indie and is vaguely reminiscent of early Joy Division with some catchy guitar riffs and intelligent and humourous lyrics.
The third album from London post-punkers was recorded in Berlin, Germany, in the ex-East German government's centre for radio broadcasts. The decision to record abroad was taken due to the band's dissatisfaction with the current London music scene.
The surprise is how good those tunes are, from urgent opener 'You're in It' to the terrific, breakneck 'That's the Reason'. While avant-garde adventure here is limited to echoes of Sparks on 'The Woes of the Working Woman' and the piano motifs of 'Mullers Rachet' , the city has certainly sharpened the Rakes' focus. No song is longer than three-and-a-half minutes, and the whole album clocks in at under half an hour, giving anyone time to play it all again.
