Lots of bombastic fun has been had playing Shadow Puppets with a Monkey, but this taster for The Rascals’ soon-to-be-released debut marks the long-awaited return of Miles Kane to his day job. And he’s leaving for the office in style: a posse of brooding beats, blood-curdling “ooh”s and ever-clever lyrics clamber up the stairs and flick on the light to reveal one monster of a welcome-back track.

A great track. Really catchy and gets stuck in your head for days. Don't think they quite match the standards set by Arctics and his other band Last shadow Puppets.
