Supersweet.org - Single Review: The Kills - ‘Tape Song/London Hates You’
















It is a sign of the times that a band such as The Kills only appear to gain fame and notoriety within the general populace through celebrityism and its viral - Kate Moss - associations, as opposed to the genuine accreditation they deserve for their virtuosity.


Their latest release, “Tape Song”, simmers with minimal ticks of lo-fi staccato guitars before contorting and kicking into a calculated maelstrom of vocal spatters and undulating choruses. B-side, “London Hates You”, however has a meditative malevolence of honesty that emanates with its simplicity, and proof that they should be revered in their own right.
