My word! What’s this? Two black men in a British rock ‘n’ roll band who’ve recorded what may just be the most rocking songs I’ve heard in aeons? How did this happen? God is great, people.
The Bohicas are actually a very modern multicultural unit, which means that if proper rock music is to actually make a revolutionary comeback in Britain, methinks it’ll have to look something like this. Having signed to Domino Records, you know these guys have the right label and management to do some real damage out there. One wishes them luck because if this is anything to go by then British rock music is on to a true winner.
The Bohicas are very new, which means they have to get your attention. Rather than just putting out a straight up music video, the lads have made a sort of short film that features two tracks from their new album. The video understandably incorporates sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll motifs, meaning it won’t be to all tastes. However, it’s the music that prevails in the end. A more family-friendly clip is available here, but music as gloriously intense and angst-ridden as this deserves a provocative video. This is the direction one hopes that mainstream British music is headed at long last.
