The Coral vs The Zutons: spot the difference?
OK, Who Killed The Zutons has just arrived. And it’s great. The thing is, if someone had played this and told me it was The Coral’s latest album I wouldn’t have known any difference. Admittedly it would be a very good Coral album: certainly better than Magic and Medicine and tighter thantheir first album. Then again: they came second, so they had something to improve on.
As they’re from the same label - it all feels a bit like we’re starting to see a scally version of Stock Aitken and Waterman’s hit factory. I look forward to their equivalent of Rick Astley.
