"Music has always been a family affair, whether in truth (the Carters, the Jacksons, the Danielsons), spirit(Parliament, Amon Duül) or some strange combination therein (White Stripes, Destiny's Child). Sibling love and competition has engineered some of the greatest songs ever made. Related in every sense but blood, Sons & Daughters rise from their early traditionalist Scottish folk songs on Love the Cup, embracing the subjects of love, god and murder that Johnny Cash so eloquently eulogized. All four members were active in the Glasgow scene before coming together. Adele Bethel and David Gow recorded and toured as members of Arab Strap and The Zephrys. Beauty emanates from death crawls, guitar chords holding on until barely perceptible and tempos steady and sure. So many bands start off playing at a fast pace before realizing the subtleties of slowing things down that it's nice to hear a band apply the same method but do the exact opposite -- speed up."
