The Shoes - 'Knock Out'

Hailing from the player’s playground of Europe, this mysterious French duo wanna knock you off your feet. A re-working of the time-honoured Rocky classic ‘Eye of The Tiger’, the punchy guitars and incessant kick-drum parallels current UK tour buddy, Primary 1. The chorus of 1-2-3-4-5 The Drums!, whilst as dated as the great Rocky himself, is gallant enough to hold firm in the ring for a few fights yet. With Metronomy and Yuksek shouting loud in The Shoes corner, the future is more Asics Tiger than Dunlop Green Flash.
