On their new 7" 'Doris Day', Paper Planes offer up a sort of Yeah Yeah Yeahs type stomp which doesn't outstay its welcome. It has a raw production sound and a very point A to point B ethos (I think) leaving nothing to spare ...which is what you want from a pop single...and it has a sleazy undercurrent which I have to fully laude. What more do you want from Say Dirty Records????Paper Planes debut single 'Doris Day'. One part American, three parts Scottish, Paper Planes came together in January 09 in Glasgow. Born out of
mutual respect of the late 70's New York punk scene, the upshot is surf/rockabilly guitars with post punk bass runs and beats, all played over East
Coast American yelps and drawls. Front woman Jennifer Paley looks like a young Chrissie Hynde and caterwauls as shrilly as Karen O, and guitarist
Christopher Haddow channels the ghostly, über-reverby trash-surf of The Cramps, while the rhythm section trade powerful low-end blows.
"Paper Planes - the Glasgow-based Scottish/American scuzzy melodic post-punk quartet seem to have arrived fully-formed out of nowhere over the
last few months. The attention to detail in their Cramps, Link Wray and Velvet Underground influenced songs is practically forensic, while in New
Jersey-born-and-raised singer Jennifer Paley they have a front woman with a distinctive voice and bags of natural magnetism" - The Scotsman
