I am very excited about this record. It has a genuine old-skool punch-out Jukebox centre hole just like 7"s from the 50's to the 80's had. I think they died with the last Smiths Rough Trade single hahaha! The pressing plant must have reconditioned an original machine to manufacture this single. It really makes my heart sigh in a such a nice way, what an old nostalgic fool I am? The music is cool too. Nothing new mind, Raincoats-y/Vivian Girls inspired stumble-core that sounds like it's about to collapse to a halt such is it's off-kilter wonky nature. The female vocal harmonies are slightly tuneless & atonal at times which all adds to the authentic naive charm of it all. Four tracks of shambling/spidery guitars, kooky exploratory bass & tin pot drums make for a pleasing listen.
Sophomore scree from these London miscreants, troublemakers each and every one of them! Disrupting the London cognoscenti since last year, LA LA VASQUEZ unleash herein a torrent of sugar-covered venom. No known antidote! Issued in a strictly limited edition of 500 copies, all on black vinyl, all with UK-style punch-out center holes! Four tracks.
