Matador Schallplatten & CDs

Review: Savages set a formidable precedent for themselves with their 2013 debut, yet 'Adore Life' wastes very little time in upping the ante with style and passion to spare. Where 'Silence Yourself' was an icy blast of angst and invective, this new opus attacks on all quarters - as raw and righteous as ever yet with a newfound widescreen sweep and beatific power that's intimidating to behold. These luminous and charismatic ditties are confident yet intimate, stark yet seductive, and can make the listener feel ten foot tall even whilst whispering intimately in their ear.
