The Struts are a glam rock band from Derby who never met a feather boa of a chorus they didn't want to wear. Luke Spiller is the showman out front, a singer with the lungs and the flounce of an old-school arena god, Adam Slack slings the guitar riffs, and the rhythm section of Jed Elliott on bass and Gethin Davies on drums settled in after an early lineup of Jamie Binns and Rafe Thomas moved on.
Everybody Wants, in 2014, is a glorious throwback: handclaps, stacked harmonies, boogie riffs and a singer who treats every line like a curtain call. "Could Have Been Me" is the big, fist-pumping anthem, "Kiss This" swaggers with a sneer, and "Put Your Money on Me" struts like its title. YOUNG&DANGEROUS, on Interscope in 2018, came roaring out with "Body Talks", slicker and even louder. Their catalog now runs to four albums in the studio plus a pair of EPs and a pair of concert records, and not one of them has a shy bone in its body.
