Feed The Kid: In The City

from #MoreInCommon HOPE not hate by Various Artists

/

about

‘In The City’ is rooted in the doleful minutia of Greater Manchester, the refrain ‘how this rainy city cries’ reiterates the mundanity of life in our apathetic Northern heartlands. Vocalist Curtis Taylor elaborates;
“People are struggling all over. It is about our city, but then every city is the same. it chews you up and spits you out. Capitalism at its peak. Even though we are not a punk band this has a longing for rebellion. Call it what you want, punk, psychedelic, rock and roll punkadelica. Its soundtrack for the rebellion.” The rough edged delivery of the vocals and a deft lyrical sentiment Curtis conveys is key to Feed The Kid’s appeal. Feverish growling is used in all the right places while the rest of the band keep a taught and disciplined performance - from the soft round tones of the Wurlitzer to Irish-born Ciaran Egan’s folk-fuelled strumming.
