Errol's Hot Wax
Luck Jacob Yates and the Pearly Gate Lockpickers
The debut album from JY+TPGL! Limited edition of 30 LPs with a screen printed sleeve featuring artwork by Russell Elder.
With lyrical content spanning subjects as diverse as soft drinks, Dundee and family bereavement, a vocal delivery akin to Nick Cave and a musical style recalling Tom Waits’ more rustic moments (Heartattack & Vine, Mule Variations) the Yates’ have hit a winning formula on their debut album ‘Luck’.
From the haunting opening track ‘Mark’ through to the closing doom-wop epic ‘When You Left Me’, the record is a perfect balance between Jake’s gritted delivery and the Lock Pickers sludged playing. The twisted rockabilly of ‘The Black Dog’, vitriolic rock ‘n’ roll of ‘Can’t Stop’ and the next single ‘Lemonade’ – which sounds like the ghost of Bo Diddley covering the hand-jive from beyond the grave – ensure that this record has something for anyone that likes their music raw, dark and left-field.
