The Kills: Love is a Deserter
Thinking.. The White Stripes, too contrived, too damn complex (yeah, really), too much arsing about.
Fortunately we have The Kills. Love is a Deserter is basically a guitar line that seamlessly weaves between rhythm and lead, ancient drum machine beats and the dual vocals of Alison Mosshart and Jamie Hince. It’s stripped down minimal rock and roll, with a blues / country feel. Like much of the album from which it comes (No Wow), it goes right to the core of music. A primal urge.
