Lucius - Wildewoman

Review by Sam Moore

As colourful as its cover sleeve, Wildewoman is packed with a joyous authenticity.»

Sixties girl-group sounds inform lots of indie rock these days. But it rarely sounds as fresh or thrilling as Brooklyn's Lucius. That's because Jess Wolfe and Holly Laessig can motherfucking sing: Listen to the outsize drama of 'Go Home,' which goes beyond just echoing Brill Building bouffant-chic. You hear the Andrews Sisters and the Roches as much as the Shangri-Las, and the production gets freaky in ways that always serve the songs: Check the smeary guitar solo on 'Don't Just Sit There,' and 'Monsters,' a parlor-room waltz that cleaves to a kind of sonar bleep. On the Phil Spector-ish finale 'How Loud Your Heart Gets,' the women chant that they're "going going going to get you." Smart money says they will will will.
