I 1st heard of the Zutons a few years ago, when their big hit single “Pressure Point” was in several Levi’s ads. Well, after 2 albums & a few hits that were bigger in the UK than on the US side but still a band that’s definitely “made it”, here comes their 3rd album, which is set to hit stores Tuesday(Monday in the UK), but thanks to DV8, it’s here today, now. For those of u who like Brit Rock(and I am definitely 1 of those types), enjoy!

Two years after Tired Of Hanging Around, the CD that made them a family name (or at least the album that contained their hit Valerie, which, when covered by you-know-who, paid off their mortgages), the Zutons return in a bullish mood. Again. You Can Do Anything seems to continue where the previous album left off. Their initially cuddly exterior, soon gives way to some very urban paranoia & angst.

Hidden amongst the retro riffs, horn squawks & lustily sung choruses are tales of scroungers (Family Of Leeches) infidelity (Dirty Rat), intolerance (You Can Make The Four Walls Cry) & sheer bloody violence (What’s Your Problem, Bumbag). Add to this the tales of rent boys (Freak) and u soon cotton on that this is not a pretty picture of modern Britain that the band want u take home with you. And it’s
all delivered with that great yearning scouse voice of Dave McCabe that helps overcome the overwhelming kitchen-sink squalor of it all sometimes.

Musically it’s definitely business as usual, & the departure of guitarist Boyan Chowdbury seems to have merely spurred them
on to greater guitar madness. Always Right Behind You boasts some killer slide. Mind you, the saxophone of Abi Harding
still seems a little too basic at times. More & more u suspect she’s there for the wrong reasons. She may provide
contextual eye candy for male fans, but sometimes the little musical texture that she does add is frankly negligible.

But no matter. The Zutons are, you’ll be relieved to know, on fine form. And maybe this time around they can keep the big
hitters for themselves.
