Top Buzzer – Remission

• 10th Jun 2011

Freewheeling, independently released, rolling guitar riff spurted rock with a punk edge, isn’t a bad set of ingredients for a debut single, ‘Remission’. This Jersey formed trio uses the Pete Shelley splattered vocal touch of Dukey, who doubles up as the bassist, to provide a snazzy, slightly intoxicated slant.

Tongue-in-cheek lyrics are pushed around like sprouts on a kid’s plate:

“If love was a train ours would be Amtrack…

  If love was a car ours would be a Sinclair.”

Grinding freshness that is captivating captures a rawness that a number of wannabe contemporary bands, only think they manage to achieve.

Rating: 4/5
