Reverend and The Makers "He Said He Loved Me" Rapidshare Music Video&Lyrics

FOLLOWING the modest success of their debut single, Heavyweight Champion of the World, Sheffield’s Reverend and the Makers return with their own unique brand of upbeat indie funk.

Frontman Jon McClure’s biting socio-cynicism has helped the Reverends to become one of the most dangerous - and exciting - bands to have grace the conservative commercial charts for some time.

But where the sense of working-class disillusionment and personal regret is ultimately overcome in their debut, Reverend and the Makers’ latest offering, He Said He Loved Me, remains stuck in a self-induced quagmire of domesticity and boredom.

Satire undoubtedly remains the band’s most powerful form of attack, but any lasting message is conclusively lost behind singer Laura Manuel’s crude ‘mockney’ vocal line, and this unfortunately leaves the nasty impression that the Reverends are simply jumping on the Lily Allen/Kate Nash bandwagon.

A strapping, intense 25-year-old, over the past couple of years Jon 'Reverend' McClure has established himself as the don of the Sheffield music scene.

Before he'd even signed a record deal he was selling-out thousand-plus capacity venues in his home city, curating his night Reverend Soundsystem and collaborating, inspiring and conspiring with the Steel City's key guitar-slinging players.

And now? He's unleashed his debut single. A spiralling electro-funk anthem, Heavyweight Champion Of The World is the definitive eleventh commandment: 'Thou shalt not be like everybody else.'
