The Gossip are a trio from Arkansas who have been around for just over 5
years now. The band have a punk/soul/garage sound and have just released
their new single 'Standing in the Way Of Control' which comes from the bands
third studio album of the same name.
'Standing In The Way Of Control' is a song that vocalist Beth Ditto wrote
as a response to her government's decision to deny gays the right to marriage
in the US.
When I first heard the bands new single 'Standing In The Way Of Control'
I wasn’t to keen on it as I couldn’t get into the mixture
of music that is on the track. However, after a few listens to the song
I have found that it has grown on me, the song has dance beats throughout
and vocalist Beth Ditto's shouting and soul vocals go down a treat alongside
the heavy guitar riffs, the song is a stunning anthem.
If the rest of the bands third album is as good as this single it will
definitely be worth checking out and I can see the Gossip sounding even
better live than they do on record.
4/5
