The Wildhearts - Renaissance Men (2019)



Eight years since I last wrote on this blog! Time goes quickly but I think I need add some lines about the Wildhearts latest record. I have a somewhat ambivalent relation to the Wildhearts and Ginger. When they are good it's the best band on Earth but when they are not so good they are sometimes unlistenable. However, this new record is excellent even if it not gets off from a very good start but some of the tracks are Wildhearts on top form, especially the riffing on "Diagnosis", which is almost as good as "Schizophonic" (fantastic riff!). There is no "29xPain" nor "Sky Chaser High" but a very good record!
