Review

It's pretty difficult to accurately pigeonhole hip young New York City gunslingers French Kicks, but we can say for sure that Young Lawyer contains a substantial streak of irony-free enthusiasm. It fuses the bluesy drawl of Detroit's White Stripes to an angular, pop-hardcore interface that hints at the band's inception in a Washington, D.C., schoolyard. These nine tracks reveal the Kicks to be a pleasantly rambunctious rock & roll proposition with a sharp twist of left-field attitude. "Arena" hints at the spacious, treble-heavy back-room clatter that gave Jon Spencer Blues Explosion their bite. And "The 88" hangs precariously between lank, shambolic slacker rock and a tightly drilled hardcore dynamic, with Jamie Krents's casual bass groove clashing with the spit and polish of Josh Wise's and Matthew Stinchcomb's shrieking guitar lines. Matching fashion with passion, French Kicks are striking a blow for the newest new wave. --Louis PattisonTelevision meets the Rolling Stones? Fugazi meets the Kinks? You decide. Last year's eponymous debut (on My Pal God Records) only hinted at their broad musical vision. This album contains brilliant melodies, amazing harmonies, and more musical goodness packed into six songs that we thought possible.
