Music The Gossip Polish Their "Dimestore Diamond"
Posted by Ezra Ace Caraeff on Thu, Jun 4, 2009 at 10:39 AM
The Gossip's second song to emerge from the upcoming Music for Men is quite a bit less promising than the first leak, the Fleetwood Mac influenced "Heavy Cross." Lacking that energy and Beth Ditto howl we've all come to expect from the band, the track just trudges along aimless before fading away without leaving much of an impact. Great, first the Katy Perry diss and now this?
LISTEN:
The Gossip - "Dimestore Diamond"
End Hits: Doesn't "Dimestore Diamond" sound like a great name for an old country song?
