    It builds nicely upon The Heavy's previous work and should please fans of the band's quirky take on rootsy soul-influenced music.

    The Glorious Dead is an achingly self-aware throwback record, focusing more on the strength of each song than the album's overall structure.

    They sometimes feel as second-hand as The Black Crowes, but The Heavy's capacity for rabble-rousing is a potent strength, which in music – if not always politics – isn't necessarily a bad thing.
