Those cheeky Bearsuit scamps have a 7" out on Fantastic plastic amusingly titled 'Foxy Boxer'. You immediately get the idea that these folks have a real lust for life, such is the fun-ness emanating from the groove. The guy sounds a bit more somber than the girl who I imagine never sleeps. The bassline wobbles throughout like a big fat wobbly snake and her lyrics "Don't estimate the power of a punch from a foxy boxer" do nothing to liberate women from domestic violence, but come as part of a recent trend of connecting peoples professions with their sexual prowess. (see Sexy Dentist). I'll stop talking shite now. 7 inches of fun with free badge. Badges rule, so do badgers.

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.
