CURRENT SWELL
Ulysses
(INERTIA)
Canadian, folk-rock quartet, Current Swell, has unveiled their latest gift to man, Ulysses. A collection of songs so infectious you want to play them over and over again.
On first listen the title-track, Ulysses, sounds like something straight out of the Marcus Mumford catalogue. This only last for a fleeting moment as Keys To The Kingdom, takes you in a completely different direction.
The music has this real groove element to it. There are moments of folk-induced brilliance as well as toe-tapping rock that stand and deliver. It’s a bunch of styles all mixed in together that hits all the right places.
There’s some real talent in this group. The music is fun and exciting, a real joy to listen to.
