Miles Kane - Loaded

Kane’s solo career, has never really ignited. He has delivered electric live shows but, continues to live under the unfortunate tag of ‘Alex Turner’s mate’. Will new effort ‘Loaded’ be the breakthrough?

The gentile opening verse is reminiscent of ‘Out of Control’ and ‘Fire in My Heart’ from his second LP ‘Don’t Forget Who You Are’. That 60’s tinge of Scott Walker and Burt Bacharach looms large and, this time, there is an almost Kiedis like vocal.

As ever with Kane, the richness of the sonic is high. This kind of 60's pastiche is so often overlooked but, this kind of warming melody combining with the warped guitar blast would be a refreshing shot in the arm for daytime radio.
