The Big Pink : Dominos

I’m not normally a fan of big, dramatic synths and wailing British voices with my rock music, but this is something special.  The Big Pink’s single from their debut album has all the ingredients of an anthem: grand, slick production; a catchy chorus; head-bop and sing-along-ability. The bitter, anti-love message is nothing new – “As soon as I love her its been too long, Talks of future with you keeps me ill… these girls fall like dominos” but that’s also what makes it easily relatable.  It’s a shame that the rest of the album isn’t as strong as the single.
