MARVEL HEIGHTS: Get Up, Get Out CD-EP Glaswegian band with a debut three-tracker, of which the title track opens proceedings and here we are immediately launched into a very rare thing - an out and out contemporary indie band with a female vocalist. So, you get a spiraling lead guitar figure around which the mid-range vocals reveal a certain Chrissie Hynde quality to them as they wrap their powerful tones around a song that veers from slowly dynamic to strongly powerful, no real chorus, but a song that captures your attention by virtue of its twists and turns and avenues down which you never expect it to go, but all of which seem somehow both natural and at tghe same time, inventive, and definitely a 2007 answer to The Pretenders. "Don't Look At Me" starts, if anything, even more urgently and this time a massive balst of guitar squall alongside r 'n' b rhythms allow the Hynde-esque vocals to croon and soar in powerful fashion as the song just cruises into top gear and never looks back, hints of Pretenders' "Middle Of The Road" coming and going as the surging power of the song keeps you hooked, and a hook keeps you dancing, the guitar work suitably strong and the band exercising a love of showing it, all on a song that really takes off and the sort of high-flying indie adrenaline rush that you simply can't tire of hearing. "Feelin' " ends things with a song that has a stop-start guitar and rhythm section intro before settling down into a surging indie groove as the vocals enter and the pace accelerates, the song every bit the adrenaline rush of before but in a more dyanmic setting, the feeling still Pretenders only this time more impassioned on the vocal side as the whole thing lifts off to perfection. OK, so I've over-used the "P" word, but there's never been a band since them who could seriously lay claim to their crown - until now - and there is most definitely room in this time and place for a band to carry this mantle forward - so it's welcome home to the new face of strong and streaming supercharged female vocal-led indie heaven.
