The Orders are a young three-piece creating waves currently on the Isle of Wight and way beyond. With recent BBC interest and a double appearance at the recent Isle of Wight Festival including a stint on the main stage, things are looking rosey\u00a0for these \u2018Caulkheads\u2019 (please feel free to google that one and no it is NOT a type of drug!).<\/p>\n
We had a \u00a0nice\u00a0fresh signed copy of \u2018If Gold Dust Turns To Stone\u2019 on chunky\u00a07-inch Vinyl, wrapped in a cool sleeve drop through our letterbox, recently and it went straight onto the turntable, and after several spins a Summer smile finally appeared on this cynical old face.<\/p>\n
Kyle Chapman (guitar and vocals) seems at present to be the main songsmith for the Orders with shards of Telecaster guitar chopping into the fray with tidy support from the throbbing, wandering, bass-punch of Issac Snow (Bass & Backing Vocals) with the entire thing held together with the safe time-keeping of Joe Rowe on (Drums & Percussion) who for his age is a mighty fine drummer!<\/p>\n
The A-side track, \u2018If Gold Dust Turns To Stone\u2019 \u00a0has an energetic youthful vibrance\u00a0with a \u2018surf\u2019 style twang here and there and a solid indie-sike- pop feel with mixed hints of The Kaiser Chiefs, The Stone Roses, The Artic Monkies, The Who, The Jam, all mashed up as influences, but with a nice dreamy twist. I even recalled a glint of \u2018Crocodiles\u2019 era Bunnymen and very early Cure, in there, as the nice space in and around this track with layered backing vocals added a lift and a confidence for even brighter things ahead. It would be great to get the Drummer Joe to add into making, even more, 3-part harmonies central to their sound and identity. The folks at Humbug\u00a0Studios seem to have caught a moment in time nicely too!<\/p>\n
The sound has a tinge of 1960s Freakbeat, West-Coast Sunshine Pop, and mixes that with a dose of gritty Britpop. They certainly have a poppy appeal that spills over onto the B-side track \u2018Time Ran Circles\u2019 which has a Roses\u2019 style outro interplay at the end which illustrates how this band have already absorbed tons of melody, harmony and rhythmic spirals that will no doubt come out into their set list in the future.<\/p>\n
So this gets a firm thumb\u2019s up from us here at Eyeplug and we look forwards to seeing and hearing more from them soon!<\/p>\n
