The Pigeon Detectives - This Is An Emergency

Dance To The Radio

Having stated that they have already written their third album (ambitious, eh?), The Pigeon Detectives are back to serenade us with more indie goodness. ‘This Is An Emergency’ chugs away leaving you eager to hear what’s next. You want to know. You’re desperate to know. Pity that once you do know, it’s not the mammoth of a song you’d pictured. In fact, it’s almost reminiscent of the Do-Re-Mi scale from The Sound Of Music. The chorus wants to gain momentum and grip you. It would, but it just lacks that special something. That one thing you require. You’re not quite sure what it is, but it’s definitely missing. It could be edgier, or rougher, or whatever, but it lacks something. You just can’t escape the nagging feeling that you’ve heard this song before. Close, but no stogie. Aaron Stoops
