Reverend & The Makers (Wall Of Sound)
Although his debut album made the top five on the back of hit single Heavyweight Champion Of The World, Jon ‘Reverend’ McClure is still most famous as the ex-flatmate of Arctic Monkeys singer Alex Turner.
French Kiss In The Chaos probably won’t change matters. It’s spryer than his debut, and a little more even.
But it’s still basically a man shouting student-union slogans over reheated indie-dance grooves best left in the late ’80s.
