Album Review of "A Million Knives" by The Velveteers (8/10)

Easy Eye Sound/Concord

Producer: Dan Auerbach

After a series of singles, an EP, and a previous album, Colorado’s The Velveteers have taken the indie rock world by storm. This latest release finds the scrappy and melodic trio artfully expanding on their late ‘80s/early ‘90s-styled sound and blending it with raw vintage glam-infused power. Songs like “Suck the Cherry” and “On and On” mine electronic beats and punchy hooks. The title track throws a nice acoustic curve while “Go Fly Away” is a grooving high concept collab with Auerbach’s The Black Keys alum Patrick Carney.
