User Album Review
Acts of Fear and Love finds Slaves touching base on a few different approaches to what they do, while also broaching a wider world that’s now opened to them through their success. Rather than going for an abridged version of punk chaos, there's a greater understanding of what can be utilised to get the point across. From wandering guitar lines that provide the perfect setting for tales and warning to thunderous, rampant drums that echo wildly, Fear and Love has it all.
"Cut and Run" proves that amongst all the noise can come a catchy ear-worm (and a dance, apparently). "Daddy" is a subdued number that shows the vulnerability of watching a mid-life crisis, and in a similar manner "Photo Opportunity" eyes up the ever-growing attention that Slaves are receiving, examining the negative underbelly that the public can often forget.
Even the title itself offers an insight to the world that they genuinely inhabit - and its origins are suitably covered in the titular closer for further reading. For a duo who, for some reason, have found the world covering them with a scrutinising and polarising reaction, they're far more adept at widening our eyes than most realise, with a vicious soundtrack to boot. This pair are one of the most exciting and forward-charging rock bands currently active.
