Elbow love to kick things off with a bang on their lead singles , and the first taste of 2019’swas no exception. “Dexter & Sinister,” which clocks in just over seven minutes, is a tour de force that showcases everything we love about the Manchester band’s heavier side in a single track. Swelling strings and swirling synths build up to a fever pitch before guitarist Mark Potter tears it all down with a punishing, bluesy guitar riff that recalls both of the aforementioned songs.
Garvey is a very specific lyricist, always finding the perfect phrase to convey his message. His words typically tell a story or make grand statements on love or heartbreak or somewhere in between. On “Jesus is a Rochdale Girl,” Garvey nearly whispers verses that paint a picture of a childhood in Rochdale, a town located within Greater Manchester.
