Review

[[single-men1]]


Melbourne-based five-piece The Single Men’s Drinking Club are known for their intense, hard-hitting live shows. In this, their debut album, the band captures the essence of these performances with a powerful 11-track collection. Many of these songs have been their bread and butter of the last year or so.

Combining violins, Hammond organ and driven guitars, frontman Tom Hoskins weaves dirty, dark twisted tales over urban backdrops with an almost Australian feel. Stand-outs are ‘Prostitutes and Cigarettes’, ‘The Getaway (I Know)’ and the downbeat, loungey ‘Dirty Love’.
