Another day, another band with a definite article prefixed name. Why the obsession with 'the'? Why not the indefinite article? Why not the first person singular past indicative? Or the third person present indicative? All these possibilities that could be used before the adjective and everybody goes with 'the'.

Still I'm sure The Features couldn't care less about semantic debates regarding their name. And despite hailing from Tennessee they probably couldn't care less about Creedence Clearwater Revival either, rather excitingly shunning the Southern-fried hickory flavoured pot of influences that the King Of Leon having been eating from, and instead dining heartily at the table of new-wave, with a couple of slices of Byrdsian psychedelic folksy-pop for dessert.

At just over two minutes of spiraling organs, deceptively hard-edged riffs and good ol' boy vocals from lead singer Matt Pelham, Leave It All Behind is short, sharp, rather catchy and possessing a chorus resplendent with the best "Woo-ooh-ooo's" this side of Motown. Add this to the rapidly developing live reputation and you have wonder whether these Features might soon be becoming more prominent. Oh, that was terrible. I'll get my coat...
