Gossip, The - Movement LP [Kill Rock Stars]

Amazing funky Arkansas combo that ended up conquering the world! All hail Beth Ditto and co! Remember coming into Metropolis Records in New Orleans when their 1st lp came out and Jason turning to me and saying... "pretty good, man!" Yeah, they are!


The Gossip's second full length outing Movement transcends elementary roots riot garage, injects it with a hefty helpin' of Arkansas-bred gospel and filters it backwards through Gories and Pussy Galore territory with a new, more pervasively unapologetic confidence. The band has grown new wings and given loft to some of their more expressive experimentalist leanings and put their back into the four on the floor stomp. The result? A swaggering throw down of hip-shakingly blooze punk fix, a party album for the revolution, a queer-positive call to arms - by way of the delta; or more simply - a brilliant album!
