The Pants Collective – The Pants Collective
The side project of The Living End Drummer Andy Strachan debuts with their self-titled EP.
Strachan’s past shines through on the EP rarely breaking the mould – The Living End’s rock vibe coming through initially – however, as the EP progresses the tracks develop more depth and character.
This is never clearer than in the final track Hometown that blends a new reggae sound with the classic pub-rock formula to create a unique standout.
The songwriting is far from groundbreaking but is very catchy and easy to sing along to, which is perfect for pub-rock anthems. (JA)
