There will always be tunes to drag us back despite the generally barren landscape that is music today. It has never been cheaper to release your inner twang yet where have all the hero bands gone? Some are still here as it happens, like New Zealand indie flagbearers the Bats who appear to have an unending pool of jangle to unveil to the world (since 1982). Ninth album ‘The Deep Set’ has just been released and ‘No Trace’ is the sweetest of introductions. Benefitting from all of the characteristics of a classic Bats song, namely jangling chords, beautiful harmonies and a chorus to make you swoon it is the reason why music has become one of five essential food groups for the soul.
