It feels like a lifetime since Wimbledon's resident slacker, Jamie T, released his remarkable sophomore album, Kings and Queens. Since then, after a drawn out dry patch, Jamie Treays released 'Don't You Find,' earlier this year, which left fans and critics alike stumped. The great thing about Jamie's pre-2014 music was that whoever you were and wherever you came from, you could undoubtedly find solace in the viciously spat lyrics of hardship and grief that seeped through every track on his first two LP's. 'Don't You Find,' however, seemed to lack this frolicking charm yet it was still outstanding in a number of different ways.
'Zombie' meanders between the two with a slightly more sophisticated and mature spin on the brash, outspoken tales of yesteryear. 'Zombie' is about as close to the comfort blanket that is Panic Prevention as we'll ever get but in all fairness, we'd be daft to think that that flame could ever be rekindled again. We'd be daft to think that the emotionally charged angst-ridden stories told seven whole years ago could ever be regurgitated in 2014. Jamie T is probably making the most refreshing and exciting musical comeback for a long time and 'Zombie' is simply another piece of evidence to support that.
