Biografia

Chief are the latest signing to Domino, and it’s always worth paying attention to a new arrival at a label that has on its roster not just Arctic Monkeys and Franz Ferdinand but also Tricky, Four Tet, Wild Beasts and Max Tundra. Chief are unlikely to make a big splash like the first two bands in that list, and they’re not as wayward or experimental as the other four. But they’re a nice addition, if “nice” doesn’t annihilate them with faint praise.

The sort of nice they peddle is the Midlake variety, or at least the Midlake of The Trials of Van Occupanther, that 2006 album on which they offered a take on 1970s west coast rock, from the Laurel Canyon troubadours to the airbrushed AOR of Fleetwood Mac. Chief, four LA musicians who formed in New York then returned to California, have in their songs a similar quality of yearning for a vague, indistinct 70s America that, when you think about it, included a lot of different styles. They namecheck Neil Young, Tom Petty, the Band, and Crosby, Stills and Nash. They don’t really sound like any of them particularly, yet you can still tell that’s what they’re into. It’s a romantic idea of listlessly driving along a freeway in the smog-drenched midday sun, in a semi-stoned state, sometime between 1970 and 1977, ie before disco, new wave and metal took hold.
