Right, name a supergroup that's actually any good. Yeah, you can't can you? It's always a bunch of clowns with battling egos producing self-satisfied music that instantly forgettable....apart from the night terrors that follow for months afterwards.
So, kneel before Mister Heavenly, a "supergroup" that have actually produced a good album! Out of Love is the work of Islands' Nick Thorburn (he was also responsible for The Unicorns), Man Man's Ryan Kattner and sometime Modest Mouse/The Shins drummer Joe Plummer.
They call it "doom wop", but I'd just say it's an extremely fun record that does pay homage to some 1950s R&B sounds, and it's all over at The Line Of Best Fit, as usual.
Out of Love is out now on Sub Pop.
