Jamie T by Will Robson-Scott
Jamie T recently released a deluxe version of his 2022 album.
Jamie T has premiered the official video for 90’s Cars, taken from this year’s comeback LP The Theory Of Whatever.
“The urchin anthemia of comeback single The Old Style Raiders served its main purpose – being instantly recognisable. An arms-aloft chorus preceded by a verse with more tongue-tripping than the melody can deal with, it bristles with guarded hope (‘told to fight for something you love in life’) and immediately takes its place among his classic songs (not a small group, either),” our album review reads.
“Prior to that, Treays pilfers a sample from This Mortal Coil’s version of Big Star’s Kanga Roo on the nostalgic (‘I was so young’) 90’s Cars, all thrumming guitar, elegant keys and moody intent.”
“He’s at it again on British Hell, with London Dungeon by Misfits used as the basis for a tale of post-Brexit patriotism which takes no prisoners. Channeling The Clash’s punk-skank style but with his trademark deprecating wit (which alone sets him apart from the Sam Fenders of today), it has the vigour and vibrancy of old.”
