Midnight Boom is a typically lean set of makeshift punk-blues characterised by Hince's raw, Nick Zinner-style guitar, and Alison's bad-attitude drawl: see the opening ". A Fever", a beat-up call-and-response number reminiscent of Royal Trux than sees Hince and Mosshart swapping sour quips over loping bass and drum machine thud, while "Cheap and Cheerful". The Kills previous album was just OK to me (great songs beside boring ones), so when a hip hop DJ recommended this one to me, naturally I was a bit confused.

Midnight Boom is the Kills third full-length release, coming three years after No Wow and Keep on Your Mean Side, from 2003. When they first emerged, carving out a niche for themselves with a distinct style and sound that knowingly referenced other artists such as Velvet Underground, Patti Smith and PJ Harvey, the Kills were joyously welcomed and both records were well received. For a band who limit themselves in their choice of instruments and now on their third album, you might ask how they can progress.

Midnight Boom is the third album by indie rock band The Kills, released on March 10, 2008, through Domino Records (March 17, 2008, in the United States). It was recorded at the Key Club Recording Company in Benton Harbor, Michigan. The title refers to the hours from midnight to 6 . in which the band was at the creative peak, writing material for the album.

It's even structured like a classic pop album, opening with two bold salvos: ". Fever" fashions dial tones, cryptically sexy banter, a foot-stomping, hand-clapping beat, and sneering shards of guitar into a fiercely catchy single. It struts with the best of the Kills' previous work, but opens their sound to many more possibilities. Cheap and Cheerful" gets even wilder, combining VV's high-maintenance sass with a rhythm forged out of slamming doors and coughing, approximating a collaboration between Joan Jett and Matmos.

Talk about The Kills - Midnight Boom


Haal
my copy of this record plays with quite some crackling and with defects on "black balloon". anyone else?
Cesar
The vinyl edition this came free with is one of the best sounding recordings I've heard. This file version sounds even better. PC with a decent sound card driven through an analogue amp and good pair of vintage bookshelf speakers and you're away. Listening to this several times as I built the initial submission and did quite a bit of research was really enjoyable, thanks in no small part by this great file release gently pushing me along.
Wizer
Probably the same release than http://www.discogs.com/Kills-Midnight-Boom/release/1352346 as everything matches, at least judging by the copy I've got!
Cordalas
This is possibly the best pressing of any record I've ever owned. The sound is absolutely perfect.
