"Slow, slinky. "Nice wee tunes". And still abrasive pop boys w/unhealthy tastes for Cinema, thick make-up, Prole birthdaays, Roxy girls, etc." stampt label catalogue
"You could take the Rolling Stone stick up your butt hack-like approach and proclaim this drivel for all of it's tiny, tinny, regrettable similarities to the Fall and Gang of Four, and slag it as a parody of itself rather than a parody of anything of content. You could hear "Theme From Ultraba" and say, well that has only been done better by only 3000 other bands, and you could laugh at the singer's attempt at crossing Mark E. Smith with Damon from Blur, and christ you could dis the pink cover art and get away with it. But then the second approach could be applied, armed with the knowledge that the Fall haven't released a decent piece of "music" since the famously brilliant Extricate and you can sorta picture how this reminds some of the first Gordons ep (a stretch for sure) and you can think that with titles like "Plastic Cowboy" and "I Am Cosmetic Man" that these guys are hardly serious, and parody just may be their advantage. Well, it matters little which approach you take, cause the final result is that this is catchy, innocent almost to the point of diffidence and a heck of a lot of fun. Apparently Bis loves them, not that that should influence you, but there is lots to love here." twee kitten
