"Scotland Yard" is a rousing bit of rock noir from Canadian songwriter Iggy Natoli, who also goes by the name Hip Culture. Set in the midst of a violent British crime wave, this track features dark lyrics that serve as a stark contrast to the tune's cheery, upbeat character. A hook-laden, convivial pop/rock arrangement is heightened by some exceptionally creative use of foley, and features occasional bagpipes that lend a Celtic flavor. Impressive female vocals and a top notch band make Hip Culture's "Scotland Yard" an easy recommendation for pop/rock fans, and its sinister lyrical content could help to establish it as somewhat of an underground cult favorite.
