Not So Scummy
We first come across Lilygun back in 2008 and thought at the time that, although maybe a little rough around the edges, they had something about them that made us sit up and listen. Fast forward 4 years and this London band have matured; their sound is more polished thanks to a lot of hard work and they now seem ready to break the chains holding them back and take on the world.
Scum is the first single to be released from their debut album due out later this year and from this example it is going to be one fine album. Anna-Christina's vocals combine beautifully between the haunting eerie verses and the powerful rockier chorus. The guitars play their part too in adding to that haunting feel before finally being let lose.
The outro keeps the same vibe as the verses and is a bit longer than expected but full credit to Lilygun for doing it that way, it would have been so easy to follow the over used formula of ending it quicker or on a high but they have stuck to their guns and made it work from start to finish.
