Song: Elbow - Neat Little Rows

ELBOW - BUILD A ROCKET BOYS!

Three years on since The Seldom Seen Kid, The Mancunian alternative rockers are back with this their fifth album, Build A Rocket Boys!, released on Monday 7th March 2011 with Fiction Records. 

I was really looking forward to this album after the last one, and when an early video was released for ‘Lippy Kids’ I was mightily pleased! Lead singer Guy Garvey’s heartfelt and northern voice compliments the gentle piano, smooth guitar and whistles. ‘Neat Little Rows’ was the next to be released and is one heck of an anthem with its rocky distorted guitar and piano riff, another classic like ‘Grounds For Divorce’. Definitely my favourite two on the album. Properly looking forward to seeing this band in 2 weeks in my hometown of Nottingham. 10/10 Elbow!
