Brighton group Opus Kink release their debut album 'The Sweet Goodbye', a ten-song collision of art-punk, theatrical storytelling, brass arrangements and romantic behaviour that should probably be discussed with a trusted professional. The band have spent years developing a live reputation built around dramatic momentum and the sense that every song may suddenly become a small public disturbance.
The album turns that energy into a more complete world, moving through vanity, seduction, danger and dark humour without sacrificing the hooks beneath the commotion. 'I’m A Pretty Showboy' captures the group’s combination of self-display and self-destruction particularly well. The goodbye may be sweet, but Opus Kink appear to have brought horns, several grievances and no intention of leaving quietly.
