Track Review: PØRTERS – Recover

What do you get when you stumble into a bar and a chance meeting with four like-minded individuals at an open mic night? Why, you get PØRTERS, of course. Named after the bar that ultimately spawned them this five-piece alt-rock band are ready to make a scene.The opening bars of Recover immediately take the listener back to 70s prog rock territory, before a more nuanced metal sound from the same decade emerges to compliment the sonic soundscape. It isn’t long before its very alt. rock essence seeps from the speakers, accentuated by a slightly haunted female vocal. In fact, the excellent vocal harmonies could give The Futureheads a run for their money. A band with potential me thinks.
