Once proclaimed as the saviours of rock and roll - in the UK, at the very least - Mike and Ben can be seen hurriedly stamping out the flames of that almost revolution, following in the recent chart-topping footsteps of Muse and Imagine Dragons with woefully mixed results. With their bluesy, garage rock edges sanded down and the pursuit of artistry put on the back-burner, Typhoons sees the band squeezing themselves into an increasingly generic (lucrative) mould, blending poppier, dancier, funkier sounds into their previously straight-shooting, overdriven sound. You get the gist, I'm sure: on their 3rd LP, British (ex-)rock duo, Royal Blood, have perfected the inoffensive ear-worm. “Either You Want It”? Well, it certainly has the good musical notes. Review Summary: Having resurrected rock and roll, Royal Blood kick it to death (again)Ĭredit where credit’s due, Typhoons is rather catchy.
