London-based up and comer, JW Ridley, has been constructing the eminence of his fairly fresh presence in music track after track, with Blitz being his latest single, a three and a half minute new-wavey-y/post-punk piece, weightily remindful of several reference points from the past, but impressed on today's alternative rock map as one of its most sneaky highlights.
Blitz is the kind of song that could spark reminiscences of Iggy Pop's nihilistic glam on albums like Blah-Blah-Blah or the sparkly crooning of the early Roxy Music, with extra layers of haze added to the already strong edginess the track conveys.
This is the second single from JW Ridley's forthcoming EP to be released on Some Kinda Love.
