Listen here!
I was worried about these guys. After their initial slash of retro shitshow partytimes their new songs started slowing down, getting less fun without getting more interesting, and it smelled like maybe they were out of ideas. But here's a sparkling little firecracker that takes their Beatles-on-acid sound to new places.
The A-side is a sweet, simple ditty, but its acoustic version is a looser, more spontaneous little jam that's even more fun, and the highlight is clearly In the City Tonight. Its a song that somehow manages to be a Kinks-perfect guitar cruncher and a formless East-West jam, hypnotic and boisterous all at once. You're only gazing at your shoes because they're dancing. It's a sprawling, compact, fascinating little contraption.
There it is, that feeling that anything's possible! From Streight Angular, and maybe even from life 3.5/5
