Single Review

The Indelicates
America Weekender Records

Article written by Ged M
Feb 12, 2008.

I love this because no-one does rocked up polemical pop any more; at least not since Sting pissed all over the concept with ‘Russians’, a song so stupid it was disowned by the Society of Morons. So it’s refreshing to say the least when the Indelicates oppose the position taken by many Left-Liberal protesters against US imperialism who ally with anti-democratic theofascists. The Indelicates declare their support for America, “though it cuts me to the core”. So far, so Newsnight! But this is a swaggeringly great pop song, cramming a Sunday supplement’s worth of intelligence into its three minutes, and even though I don’t buy into their argument, I bow before the wilful disregard for pop convention that is prepared to Say Something.

There’s more musical theatre on the rest of the record: they take on the Church in the ballady ‘No Religion’ and then Julia gets all wartime-music-hall with her piano in ‘The Last Bombed City’. It’s performance art without the wankiness that term usually implies, and it’s so out of time it’s practically futuristic: one day all pop stars will dress like Pilgrim Fathers.
