Miss Black America - Drowning By Numbers

A peal of feedback crackles through the speakers as Miss Black America's second single, Drowning By Numbers, thunders into its wailing guitar riff, that returns time and again to save it from rather humdrum verses. The glorious sonic guitar sound and layered backing vocals that grace the infectious chorus elevate this single into the category of catchy rock anthem. It drags in places but it's got enough swagger and attitude to have you nodding your head in time and grinning with delight as the guitar squeals through its high pitched solo. [Dave Reid]
