January 12, 2004The Corvids Have LandedAfter another day of working for the government I drove my old Chevy home in the flurries to find the mailbox empty again. Riding the lift up the flat didn’t move the soul either. It was just another Monday. Then there resting against the door of the flat was this little box. And in the little box was the debut CD by Ken Layne and The Corvids. What an amazing, purty, brilliant album Ken and the lads put together! At the moment I am on about the forth listening. It is so good. Here is what I wrote on Amazon about Fought Down.
Ken & The Corvids have put together a fine, little masterpiece here. Layne's writing, some times with the help of Welch, is well worth listening to closely as it rides the riffs and beat. He sings it right, rough and sweet. Axel is just pure and too damn good on his guitars. Coulter is having too much fun with it all behind the beat as is Solomon bouncing it along sweetly. And Matt Welch finishes off the fine combo with his backing vocals, mad enjoyable passion and special touch for the heart of it. The Corvids have put out one purty record everyone should hear.
