Operahouse - Born A Boy
[Marrakesh]

This second single of The Pigeon Detectives pitching, Milburn life gazing combining, displays high jinks indie fire from Camden quartet Operahouse, as they seek to expand upon the attention of certain media bigwigs such as Zane Lowe and Johnathan Ross. That was gained from previously released debut single ‘Man Next Door’.

Drummer, Ben Niblett controls the pace of the action with high profiled and slightly hollow pounding, building up the impact for the catchy and sordid chorus thrust; “Bang, bang Betty dressed like your mother, caught you in the toilets catching eyes with your brother.”

A slower climb and a sprinkling of reflection create a bigger impact for the angular riffs concealing high points in B-side, ‘Telescopes’. Johnny Lloyd’s vocals take on a slower and worldly narrative while he puts sneaky urban life under the microscope. This offering will help them climb on the melodic and seedy indie pedestal and there are signs early on that they could stay there for a while.
