Pigeon Detectives - Wait For Me [Review]

In this review, I am going to be looking at the debut album from the energetic and highly entertaining Indie-Rock band, The Pigeon Detectives. The album, titled "Wait for me," is full of raw and hard hitting songs, that seem to be written about everyday circumstances and situations that occur in everyday life, which helps to put the band at a level in which almost anybody can relate to them.

The album is packed full of recognisable Indie Rock guitar riffs and solos, hard hitting Indie drum beats, and the Indie Rock bass which really helps to run the song, but also emphasise the bass drum and the rhythm guitar.


MRG's Top 6 Picks:

Number 6:

In 6th position, I have chosen to place, "Caught In your Trap," a typically indie track, which manages to combine the deep barre chords with the higher octave of the chord to create a stronger sound without going too over the top. The little drum fills that are brought in throughout of the song help to break up the song and keep it interesting.

Number 5:

5th position belongs to "You Better Not Look My Way," this song starts off with a very deep and strong bass line, with the guitar entering in a dramatic fashion with a lot of distortion and feedback before the typical catchy Pigeon Detectives Indie Rock guitar riff kicks in.

Number 4:

Number 4 has to be, "Romantic Type," excellent starting song that kicks the entire album off with a fairly quick bass and snare beat that manages to set the tone for the rest of the song, and the rest of the album in essence, very well written song, catchy lyrics and an excellent guitar riff.

Number 3:

For third position, I have placed, "Don't Know How To Say Goodbye," this song may be less than 2 minutes long, but it's quick kick-in, and it's fast pace mixed with it's attitude managed to convince me to rate it 3rd best song on the album.

Number 2:

So, now for second position, it was a hard choice, but I have placed, "I'm Not Sorry," this song is a really well written Indie tune, full of everything that a successful indie song needs, it has attitude, pace, emotion and depth, if you are an Indie fan, this song is most definitely worth a listen.

Number 1:

There is no question which song gets the number 1 spot in my opinion, it has to be the amazing "I Found Out," another song that is just over 2 minutes long, but it has pace, a strong guitar and a powerful bass line that strengthens the song. What really makes this song for me is the emotion behind it and the overall view of the song, out of the entire album, I feel that this is the one that most people can relate to.


That concludes my review of The Pigeon Detectives album "Wait For Me," would recommend a listen if you get the chance, and maybe give them a "Like" on Facebook at:
