What You Heard
When Zane Lowe of MTV and BBC1 described The Checks' current single as “the hottest track in the world” we didn’t hold our breath. But he’s got it right. From frontman Ed Knowles' opening wail, you know you’re in for something special. One funky bluesy as fuck riff later and you can’t help your body moving.
When Zane Lowe of MTV and BBC1 described The Checks' current single as “the hottest track in the world” we didn’t hold our breath. But he’s got it right. From frontman Ed Knowles' opening wail, you know you’re in for something special. One funky bluesy as fuck riff later and you can’t help your body moving. Better still is ‘Oh Please’ with it’s take on a wasted weekend. “Saturday night didn’t go so well/ Smashed my teeth and I felt like hell,” screams Knowles in a manner redolent of Robert Plant. Pure unadulterated rock ‘n roll. Love it.
