The most riveting track on their underwhelming Broken Boy Soldiers debut, ‘Hands’ is a combination of ‘60s infused power-pop and hardened guitar. It shows that, when they hit their stride, Brendan Benson and Jack White can crank out a decent racket together. Benson’s polished vocal is off-set by White’s spiralling, Jimmy Page-inspired guitar lines. ‘Hands’ does, perhaps, slightly overstay its welcome but is fun in doses.
