McFly? Yes, it looks like one of the bigger pop acts from the 90s, or at least one of their , has matured into a gen-you-ine rock act. Citing classic influences such as The Rolling Stones, Nick Cave, The National, and Nirvana to the writings of Alan Ginsberg, Vladimir Nabokov, Leonard Cohen, and Jack Kerouac, the three-piece dropped debut EP Heaven via streaming platforms yesterday.
The band consists of McFly’s bassist Dougie Poynter, Todd Dorigo (a solo artist who has toured with Carl Barat of The Libertines) and drummer Corey Alexander. In its first musical offering, the band clearly demonstrates its song-writing flair. Dorigo’s deep, velveteen voice and intricate guitar work, coupled with the phenomenal rhythm section of Poynter’s melodic bass lines and Alexander’s epic drum sound, blend their expansive influences into a maelstrom of stirring and skilfully crafted rock songs.
