On Fervent Devise, Plants are able to call back to the rock of the 1960s and 1970s. Infectious guitar lines, charismatic vocals, and shuffling drums laid down by Alex unite to make something tremendously cohesive. With just a hint of 1990s alternative included in the mix, Plants are able to make an effort wholly unique while reverent of influences preceding the act. With the swagger of 1970s-Steven Tyler or Emotional Rescue-era Mick Jagger, Plants are able to craft a song that will stick with listeners long after the song ceases to play. Few acts are able to create such a cohesive sound with a single track; Fervent Devise is an early favorite for this summer.
