In a time dominated by quick and easy singles, often
based on nothing more than gimmicky slogans or well-worn ideas, the Kitchens
have crafted a fully realized collection that, while crammed with potential
singles, feels like an album. Their past singles and EPs (collected in the
U.S. by Rough Trade on Love Is Hell) only hinted at the emotional expanse and
depth found on Strange Free World-producer Hugh Jones (Echo & The Bunnymen,
Ultra Vivid Scene) has taken the Kitchens' waves of glistening feedback and
shaped their sound into a vast, layered throbbing pulse. It's almost too easy
to liken the Kitchens to renowned Brit swirl-pop like the Smiths, Bunnymen,
Chameleons or Cocteau Twins; while there's no denying the textural similarities,
especially when it comes to the wash of guitars, the welcome lack of vocal
flamboyance and the constant melodic bursts of brilliance help not only to
distance the Kitchens from knee-jerk comparisons, but also to propel them into
heights few bands ever approach.
