El Rey says…

There's something steady but explosive about London's The Big Pink. The band has compressed 50 years of loveless and lovelorn rock and roll into a sometimes unsettled but frequently tender circle. They're a truly modern pop group - seamlessly, the band melds folkish and warm melodies, the spiritual tranquility of soul and gospel, the rhythmic propulsion of rave, the white noise of punk, the glitchy textures of electronica, and the heavy drones of your favorite New York rock bands for a sound that's both distant and utterly familiar.
