Demob Happy's third album, 'Divine Machines', harnesses their delicate tightrope of heaviness and melody, sweetness and riffs, and rides it up to the stratosphere. From the opening bars of 'Token Appreciation Society', that rev into gear on synthetic wobbles before finding their groove in a '70s sci-fi bass stomp flecked with falsetto backing vocal harmonies, 'Divine Machines' feels like the album Demob Happy have always been destined to make. The cornerstone influences - a sprinkle of Queens of the Stone Age swagger; a splash of glam; a Lennon-like knack for melody - remain present, but utilised in ways that rely wholly on Matthew, Adam and Tom's specific magic as a unit: one that values a 'janky guitar solo' as much as it does a beautifully-crafted, unexpected love song.
