Single Review
Alberta Cross - Taking ControlAlberta Cross – Taking Control

‘Taking Control’ is the new single from the outstanding Alberta Cross, the band have been making an positive impact on myself ever since I first heard their ‘The Thief And The Heartbreaker’ EP a good 18 months ago and since then they have been very busy touring including some massive arena shows supporting the Brit pop wonders that were Oasis, they also released ‘ATX’ a few months back which happens to be the first single to be taking from their debut album and they are now releasing the second single ‘Taking control’ on the 23rd November which is just after their current short headline tour finishes.

Yet again I still can’t find a bad thing to say about Alberta Cross as ‘Taking Control’ is a fantastic single and the best song that they have released so far it is so catchy and features some killer backing vocals of “Woooooo-oooooh!”, yeah it doesn’t sound that exciting in words but trust me when you hear it you will be excited, the dual guitar riffs are super charged and so much better than what any indie band have to offer these days, infact ‘Taking Control’ is the best indie song I have heard in a long time.

seriously with song’s as good as Alberta Cross are creating these days you just know they are going to have an healthy career and you can easily bet your house that they will be playing stadium shows again in the near future and quite possible headline shows rather than the support slots of recent times.

5/5
