God Is in the TV
In these grey-coloured times of four skinny kids playing at being indie, they have brought the noise in their own particular 80’s meets the here and now hue, and the pop world is a much better place for it. Well worth the wait, congratulations.

Some people might consider the outlandishness and its refusal to stay still the biggest drawback of the record, but it isn’t. That’s a silly take to have about an album where silliness is engineered to be a prevailing force.

This Brighton quartet’s debut feels like a big day-glo shot of adrenaline.

Potential comes in many forms, and for congratulations, it stems from the musicianship: high and mighty, stealth and singular.

one of the most innovative and exciting new bands atm, if you like quirky prince-esque new wave with noise-pop and dance-punk elements you'll love this, insanely infectious grooves, charismatic vocals and melodies all around, and brilliant production that enhances the catchiness of each song whilst also leaning into their experimental undertones all combine to make this a genuinely brilliant debit
