'Love It's A Killer': Exclusive First Review of Mutineers' New Single

Yesterday I was sent over a new single courtesy of The Mutineers ahead of their ‘Love, it’s A Killer Tour’ which kicks off next month. The new single, which goes by the same name, took me by surprise from the very first beat. Going by the name alone, I was expecting a melancholic love ballad but what I heard instead was something more along the lines of The Fratellis. The intro brings us into a new, jaunty sound with a fresh attitude. ‘Love, It’s A Killer’ seeps with personality and energy with it’s confident vocal harmonies accompanying Nicholas Mallins, as he reminds us the extent of his talent. Michael Reed provides us with the cutting guitar riff which gives the track an added punch. This, combined with Twemlow's, Gronow's and Salt’s work on the rhythm, creates perfect chaos. The Mutineers maintain their intricate melodies, but it is tackled less seriously, ‘Love, It’s A Killer’ has all the makings of a strong single with it’s sense of urgency and relatable lyrics.
