Scottish to their core, six-piece The Phantom Band veered between many musical styles at their somewhat ill-attended gig at the Haunt.

In fact, the effect was so dizzying that in any given song across their hour and a quarter set, you could namecheck three or four different genres.

However, the foundations of this ‘anything in the school music room’ approach were definitely hard rock, and occasional singalong choruses that reminded of their country’s great musical heritage.

Doom Patrol shifted from stadium rock into a sludgy, metal tone, and elsewhere there were flashes of everything from surf rock to indie disco of the early 2000s.

The addition of a xylophone and keyboards did little to clarify the mission statement, especially when traces of 1970s blues rock came to the fore.

However, when the stars aligned and everything clicked into place, Phantom Band really could punch above their weight.

Singer Rick Anthony was an intriguing mix of self-effacing Scot icon and bearded bum, and by the close, his vocals raged loud above the Mogwai-esque pounding that was unfolding.

Now, if they can just pick one style and stick to it, they'd really deliver.
