Stereophonics keep up the good work on Oochya!, with a few surprises.
As Oochya!'s onomatopoeic title implies, Stereophonics are still having as much fun as anyone.
Oochya! is undoubtedly one of Stereophonics’ better albums in recent times even if, at 15 tracks, it’s a little too long.
Stereophonics, now a quarter of a century into their impressive career, are ticking boxes on Oochya! with occasional and well-needed sprinkles of inspired zest.
Kelly Jones’ band revive their trusty formula, making songs that at their best hit the sweet spot between emotional and anthemic.
They are the embodiment of meat-and-potatoes rock, but now they skimp on memorable choruses and exhibit a deficiency of thrills.
