King Creosote @ Queen's Hall, 29 Sep

When Kenny Anderson threatens to drop a bombshell, you'd do well to find the nearest bunker and batten down the hatch, pronto. In his endeavour to give away some devastating revelation on every night of this tour, tonight's tale of how he came to losing a Durness crowd detonates in a way which leaves a bamboozled expression on many a mug in the Queens Hall. It's lucky then that King Creosote and his bomb squad of Fencers have a few tunes in their arsenal to help exercise a spot of damage control. Lilting ballad Leslie blends well with the perennial beauty of Not One Bit Ashamed, while a bass heavy mix of You've No Clue Do You sources its galloping groove from an old Euro trance number. Klutz benefits from The Pictish Trail's maverick guitar playing, although the whammy bar soloing inevitably descends into Marty McFly-like chaos by the encore. Fire in the hole!
