HATCHAM SOCIAL now with a trashy & hugely entertaining tune called 'Dance As If...' that has one of those scratchy surf flecked guitars & bouncy double bass vibes that harks back to rockabilly & the more bequiffed elements of the much beloved (in my world) C86 movement. It's a total pout & gurn indie disco tune that leaves you panting for more, if only to see that cute mardy looking girl with the hello kitty hairslide pull some hip shaking moves on the dancefloor again, in her stripy knee socks & polka dot dress. The flip's a lo-fi acoustic lament coming somewhere between Billy Bragg & something on K records. Sparse & raw & sweetly just so. Genuine & unpretentious DIY fun. Yum. Highly limited job on the new indie Waks records.

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.
