Purple - (409) NA

November Album

Another great month for music with plenty of albums to choose from. The LP that I have picked is (409) by the band Purple. Other great albums this month come from Superfood, Foo Fighters, Girlpool, Olivia Jean and many more. I was very close to picking the Foo Fighters epic album Sonic Highways but these guys just pipped them to the post. The album has a strong Jack White vibe of guitar playing mixed with elements of Sonic Boom Six style vocals. This sound is most notable on the track below.

This would make a brilliant party album or just an album to mosh out to when you are all alone, either or, whichever you're in the mood for. The shared vocals from male to female also add another dimension to the tracks that I think really benefits their sound. Apart from the single below I like Double Nickels and Beach Buddy as stand out tracks. They have a slightly more Strokes vibe but all as a complete package with the other songs it really really works.
