This is the fastest, funniest disc that these ears have been privy to in a long time. It is as though someone has taken the current Daft Punk opus, fed it some speed and helium, and then recorded the results at double speed. Strangely enough, there’s also a fair bit of the spirit of forgotten 90s guitar pop heroes The La’s in there, too. This is a very vibrant and Day-Glo disc that immediately makes you warm to it with its harmonies and catchy guitar parts. These guys have swallowed their influences and then just let their imaginations run riot – no social commentary, no faux-lovelorn lyrics. Would that more artists these days thought to do the same.
