While there are undoubtedly some pairings in music that seem made for eachother, you often find that it’s the least likely match-ups which prove to be the most interesting. Nas with Damien Marley, Shane McGowan with Kirsty McColl and Robert Plant with Alison Krauss are among the unlikely successes which initially spring to my mind, and this year’s Faris Badwan and Rachel Zeffira pairing can also be added to that list. This is a hook-up which is so unorthadox due to the widely different stylings of the pair - Badwan is the gangly frontman of noisy British art-punks The Horrors, while Zeffira is a classically trained Canadian vocalist, - but these approaches interact wonderfully on this, the duo’s debut full-length.
