I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, The Funk, the Soul & The Holy Groove by Deltaphonic and I really like it. Opening with what sounds like a book from George Clintons book of funk, Liars really hits a terrific groove. With Andrew T. Weeks on vocal and guitar, Paul Provosty on lead guitar, and Trenton O'Neal and Ciaran Brennan on drums, this thing is super. Jerry Henderson on bass and Andriu Yanovski on keys add critical funk to an already funk track. Excellent opener. With a thumping bass by Henderson and a cool guitar riff by Provosty, bouncing off of the snappy rhythm of O'Neal Bad People has that perfect New Orleans feel. Weeks' vocals are wild and Provosty's guitar playing is intelligent and hot. If It Don't Bleed has a lumbering rhythm, maintaining it's overall funky feel but with solid vocal harmonizing with Josh Kagler. A real nice change up is soulful ballad, The Denouement, with it's strong melody and super vocals and full organ treatment. Very nice. Wrapping the release is high stepping, See Red, with a great drum line and super bass riffs. Weeks' vocals are always great and Provosty rips a super guitar solo on this one making it an excellent closer to a totally enjoyable release.
