This year XL Recordings released the album True Romance from London trio the Golden Silvers. At first glance it might be easy for some to pass them off as an 80s rock/dance pop/new wave revival band… but that is far from the case. While there’s that sound coating the LP, the structure calls upon strong influences of funk and rhythm and blues. Sewing it all together is the voice of Gwilym Gold who spouts vocals like Joe Strummer having a night cap with James Murphy.
