Chain and the Gang: In Cool Blood 12"

The third album by Chain & The Gang, released in 2012, has an attractive joker: Katie Alice Greer - the charismatic singer of the Priests takes over the second voice in all songs. And it doesn't matter if she just utters a pointed "Yeah!" or, like in "Free Will", takes over the song completely - her presence is noticeable in the room. "In Cool Blood" has become a kind of Bonnie & Clyde or Nancy & Lee album: adventurous, sexy and quite self-confident. The balance between the two different voices is perfectly balanced, the songs are casual but to the point. This time it's less about capitalism and more about living out personal freedom. "Heavy Breathing," celebrates the joys of late-night phone sex; Greer sings "Free Will" so snotty, self-confident, as if she had just given an abusive guy a painful kick in the groin: "I don't believe in free will. I just do what I feel, that is the deal, I don't believe in free will". Connoisseurs will surely hear echoes of the Delmonas or Holly Golightly. It's hard not to love this mix of lurking garage rock and tongue-in-cheek poses and confessions. Chain & The Gang have created their own world, a violently simmering petri dish full of songs and stories that bring together the past and future of rock 'n' roll. "Not for the weak of heart or the slow of brain, "In Cool Blood" is for the hot of blood, the quick of temper, and the hard of sleeping. Recorded in a spontaneous, ad lib session of dream led automatic writing/ rocking, "In Cool Blood" was made at a Surrealist stomp session in the bowls of Olympia." - CHAIN & THE GANG manager Johnny Sincere
