From beginning to end you’re kept on your toes and entertained throughout. Every track is a gem, and just when you think they’re going to slow the tempo, they surprise you with more upbeat off-kilter manoeuvres. Each song is markedly different from the preceding track without ever feeling disjointed. In fact, listening to this album feels like skipping on air, but in an indie rock n roll ‘stylee’.
This side project between Lou Hickey and Jon Lawler (better known as Jon Fratelli from the Fratellis) may even be in danger of usurping their day jobs. Sometimes two people come together and the result is a creative explosive. These two sound like they’ve been together for years and are the rock equivalent of bacon and eggs: delicious on their own, unbeatable together.
