UK indie rock band The Reytons<\/a> – vocalist Jonny Yerrell (vocals), lead guitarist Joe O’Brien, bassist Lee Holland, and drummer Jamie Simpson – spent five years working towards the release of their debut album Kids Off The Estate<\/em><\/a>. The bumpy journey to this moment can be seen in the documentary Becoming The Reytons <\/em><\/a>on YouTube. Look where they are now – goosebumps all over when you hear a full house roar the lyrics of title track KOTE<\/em><\/a>: “You don’t have to hate \/\/ The kids off the estate \/\/ Mates after a fate \/\/ And they called them Reytons” – an anthem for everyone who knows what it’s like to hang out on the street. The LP has 13 other infectious guitar rockers – we already knew a number of them from their previous EPs – that will do well everywhere (on the car radio, from your speakers at home, in the concert halls, etc.). The sound is reminiscent of hits that you often heard 15 years ago (Arctic Monkeys, Kaiser Chiefs, Courteeners, Dirty Pretty Things, etc.), hits like they are no longer made. The band members will never deny South Yorkshire’s working class, but let’s face it: with such great songs and such a convincing stage presence, they’ll be away from home a lot, to conquer the rest of the world. The Reytons are the ‘right ones’ to get that job done.<\/p>\n
