The talent of the Alabama Shakes is undeniable. The unique, gritty sound of Brittany Howard’s voice, fused with the instrumental creativity of the rest of the band, makes for one of the most consistent albums ever made. Yes, you read that right, ever made! None of the songs on “Sound and Color” are skip-over songs. You know, the songs you always hit next for when re-listening to a record. The individuality of each track sucks you in, and Howard’s howl keeps you coming back again and again.
