Chained to Love 12''
Merge

Rating: 7 healed bruises out of 10
Instead of putting out a 7'' like a normal band, Divine Fits have released a 12'' with both songs on the A side. I suppose that makes the songs easier to listen to on the vinyl, but it's just...weird. I'm additionally confused why the second song is listed first on the sleeve, it's like they are intentionally trying to fuck with my OCD tendencies. Anyways, the songs - much like their full-length, the vibe of the songs seems to directly correlate with who is singing them Dan Boeckner handles the lead on first track "Chained to Love," and to no one's surprise it sounds more or less like a Handsome Furs song. Britt Daniel sings the follow-up track "Ain't That the Way," the better of the two songs which sounds like a classic early 2000s Spoon song. If you loved their record, go ahead and check this out, it continues things in that exact same trajectory.
