Underground Heaven
Fate has had a big hand in helping London quartet, The Volitains, come to be. Guitarist Nick D’Amico met lead singer Candice Ayery by virtually saving her life at Camden Town Underground station and so begun this very impressive new band.
Both ‘Underground’ and ‘This Love’ capture the punky feel to these rocking tracks. Makes you realise this is a band that you want to go see live where their energy and attitude will blow you away along with everyone else in the crowd.
In a market which is hard to be original, ‘Underground’ is a song that tries to be so, not one to follow the stereotypical style for a song, from the opening synthesised intro to the cameo drum solo at the end. This includes Candice Ayery’s vocals, real in your face style that surely will see The Volitains become a force to be reckoned with. Coupled with ‘This Love’, this release has a Stooges feel to it, if Iggy was a female that is and has fast become a firm favourite here.
